The River
When the day has finally come
That I am kissed by death
Promise me one thing
As I take my last breath
Donβt let me waste away
Rotting into the earth...disgust
Burn me and set me to flames
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Spread me in the river
Where the water will always flow
Let it guide me through the land
And the world I used to know
Let my grave be the river
I promise it's for the best
Let me always be moving
for I never want to rest
And may you come back to the water
Should you ever miss me so much
Feel the river brush against your fingertips
And you will feel my touch
