"When I’m gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You mustn’t tie yourself to me with tears. Be happy that we had so many years. I gave you my love, you gave me in happiness. I thank you for the love you have shown, but now it’s time I traveled alone. So grieve a while, if grieve you must, then let your grief be comforted by trust. It’s only for a while that we must part. So bless the memories that lie within your heart. I won’t be far away, for life goes on. Though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near. If you listen with your heart you’ll hear all of my love around you soft and clear. Then when you must come this way alone I’ll greet you with a smile and say 'Welcome Home'."
