When the sun has set,
And to the dust from which I came I must return,
Let me go.
Shed a few tears for me,
Hopefully they will drip on the soil of my grave
And from there, beautiful flowers will grow.
When you go back home and there is an aching emptiness,
Miss me a little….
Let your heart be filled with the love and the fun memories we shared,
Not the pain and grief of my departure.
If you walk down a street,
And hear a phantom of my laughter,
Miss me a little… But not too much.
Lift your face, smile and remember the warmth of laughter.
When you are alone and you hear the echoes of my voice,
Miss me a little…
Not with a sad heart and bowed head,
But with nostalgic joy for all the songs we sang together.
And when the tears and pain become too much,
Write me a letter and burn it.
And in the smoke that curls to the sky,
Let your pain go.
Lift you face and let the warmth of the sun dry your tears.
And in the breeze that dances around you…
… Let me go
