When I am gone from life Don’t cry any tears Forget the bad times that we shared Remember happy years

The cruel words that were spoken Remove them from your mind Embrace the words of love we shared Whispers of a loving kind

We had some hardened battles And days of endless fun I wish we had more time From when life had begun

When I’m just a memory Do not dwell on the past Live with me inside your heart Let our minds last

Seasons they will come and go The memories may fade But I am with you in times of need Never be afraid

So raise a glass in times of doubt Every year I may have left in person But my eternal spirit’s near

Smile the way I remember Play my favourite song Don’t be down for I am here Even though I’m gone
