Passing

Is my passing causing you pain?
Will my dying leave you in mourning?
Never thought we would end up this way
Thought our love would protect us forever

But there is no more life in my veins
And to death I know I am going
I can't keep this darkness at bay
You have been my best friend only lover

Know I loved you with all of my heart
And if heaven allows me to find you
In your dreams I'll come every night
And my love I will lay down beside you
Your heart I will hold in my hands
Safe from the world that surrounds you
And when your light finally dims
Together we will begin, once again

My life's just a link in a chain
My love for you never changing
And if you will allows me to say
My spirit in you lives forever

Now as your life starts again
And new loves you will be knowing
Remember my love for you each day
And the good to times we had together

Know I loved you with all of my heart
And if heaven allows me to find you
In your dreams I'll come every night
And my love I will lay down beside you
Your heart I will hold in my hands
Safe from the world that surrounds you
And when your light finally dims
Together we will begin, once again

Fill your life with sunshine not rain
Live each day like there is no tomorrow
Be true to your heart never stray
Finding love in each heart you encounter

My life I can no longer feign
So kiss me goodbye and be going
Let this final sleep have its way
And my spirit a new light discover

Know I loved you with all of my heart
And if heaven allows me to find you
In your dreams I'll come every night
And my love I will lay down beside you
Your heart I will hold in my hands
Safe from the world that surrounds you
And when your light finally dims
Together we will begin, once again
