And I felt myself going
I was in a great deal of pain
It was a very frightening experience
I began to slip
I just started to feel myself going
And I remember trying to hold on
I'll be ok, I'll be ok
And it got to a point where I just couldn't
And everything began to just become
 very quiet and I
 can remember with
 every ounce of strength I had, I wanted to say
 goodbye to my wife
It was important to me
 and I did, I remember just
 turning my head and looking at her and saying:
"I'm gonna die, goodbye joan"
And I did
It was then that I experienced
 experienced what we call a near death experience
For me, it was nothing near about it, it was there
It was a total immersion in
 light, brightness, warmth, peace, security
I did not have an out-of-body-experience
I did not see my body or any one about me
I just immediately went into this beautiful bright light
It's difficult to describe
 as a matter of fact is impossible to describe
 verbally it cannot be expressed
It's something which becomes you and you become it
I could say that I was peace, I was love
I was the brightness, it was part of me

Goodbye my friend
Life will never end
And I feel like you
And I breath on truth
Love is the life breath of all I see
Love is true life inside of me
And I know you somehow
 as I hold you in my heart
(Senses following me)
In my heart
(Senses following me)
There's a fire in the sky
 and I know it's you
(Senses following me)
There's a light, it's all around
 and I know it's you
(Senses following me)
I know it's you
(Senses following me)
And I dream like you
(Senses following me)
 'cause I breath on truth
(Senses following me)
For I was always there
I will always be there

It's just so beautiful
 it was eternity
It's like I was always there
 and I will always be there
 that my existence on earth was very brief
 instant...

I could say that I was peace, I was love
I was the brightness, it was part of me
