When I Am Gone

When I am gone, release me. Let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that we had so many years
I gave you love, you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness
I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it is time I travel alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part,
so bless those memories within your heart
I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you cannot see or touch me,
I will be near
And if you listen with your heart, you will hear
All of my love around you, soft and clear
Then when you must come this way alone,
I will greet you with a smile and welcome you home.

May you live as long as you want, And never want as long as you live.
We miss you now Our hearts are sore, As time goes on, We miss you more, Your loving smile, Your gentle face, No one can fill your Vacant place. Your life was love and labor, Your love for your family true, You did the best for all of us, We will always be, Loving you.
