May I Go Now?
Don’t you think the time is right?
May I say goodbye to pain filled days
And endless lonely nights?
I’ve lived my life and done my best,
An example tried to be,
So can I take that step beyond
And set my spirit free?
I didn’t want to go at first
I fought with all my might!
But something seems to draw me now
To a warm and loving light.
I want to go! I really do!
It’s difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
To live just one more day.
To give you time to care for me
And share your love and fears.
I know your'e sad and are afraid
Because I see your tears.
I’ll not be far, I promise that,
And I hope you will always know
That my spirit will be close to you
Wherever you may go.
Thank you for loving me,
You know I loved you too.
That’s why it is hard to say goodbye
And end this life with you.
So hold me now, just one more time,
And let me hear you say,
Because you care so much for me,
You’ll let me go today.
