When you go
just so you know
I'm going too.
Couldn't stay without you
no day is day without you.
It just wouldn't do
to be alone
without you.

Loneliness would be the face
here in this place
where the sun always shone.
When you are gone?

And I will care to the end
until you're sent off to spend the love that I will send
to you.
Day can't be day anywhere without you.

I don't care
if we don't share the last sweet
we will meet
in the time we are due.
Life lived with you was the ultimate gift.
One shift of perspective
One lift of our eyes
and the sun will rise slowly on
Heaven.
