I do not want you to cry
Most of you
Crying at my grave
I don´t even know just yet
At least so I hope
Still, I do not want you to cry
I want to die old
Surrounded by family
Surrounded by friends
Well knowing what I did
With a proud smile
I want to part
From my body
At least for this life
I want you to laugh
To remember
And yes...
If you feel like it
You may cry
Though not forever
Life keeps going on
We have no choice
No say
It´s better that way
I don´t know when
I don´t know how
I just want you to know
No matter who will be there
That I was proud
And happy
I am now
I shall always be

At least so I hope
Still, I do not want you to cry

Surrounded by family
Surrounded by friends
Well knowing what I did
With a proud smile
I want to part
From my body
At least for this life
I want you to laugh
To remember
And yes...
If you feel like it

Though not forever
Life keeps going on
We have no choice
No say
It´s better that way
I don´t know when
I don´t know how
I just want you to know
No matter who will be there
That I was proud
And happy
I am now
I shall always be
