A last act of compassion as this old world disappears |
|
A message to a loved one - a warning to colleagues or peers |
|
Standing perhaps at the end of the bed or floating through your dreams |
|
It's true I will be long departed before you decipher what it means |
|
Let me go now my friend let me go |
|
There are still so many things i would like you to know |
|
There's no pain now my friend there's no pain |
|
Be sure we will meet again |
|
A last act of kindness and decency now as this world disappears |
|
May get lost in a valley of sorrow or drowned in a ocean of tears |
|
A visit like this may be too much for sanity's grasp - the need to deny |
|
But the chance i can feel is too tempting to miss and i know i must try |
|
Time to go now my friend time to be gone |
|
Thanks for being there - being there for so long |
|
I am safe now my friend I am safe |
|
Be sure we'll meet again |
|
This is me signing off |
|
This is me signing out |
|
This is me signing off |
|
This is me signing out |
|
Just when you thought I was gone |
|
And the trick was complete |
|
l return to bring this curtain down |
|
As the audience will rise as one to their feet |
