aligncenterWhen I come to the end of the road

aligncenterand the sun has set for me,

aligncenterI want no rites in a gloom-filled room.

aligncenterWhy cry for a soul set free

aligncenterMiss me a little, but not too long,

aligncenterand not with your head bowed low.

aligncenterRemember the love that we once shared,

aligncenterId like to leave an echo whispering

aligncenterMiss me but let me go.

aligncenterFor this is a journey we all must take,

aligncenterand each must go alone.

aligncenterits all part of the Master plan,

aligncentera step on the road to home.

aligncenterWhen you are lonely and sick of heart,

aligncenterGo to the friends we know

aligncenterAnd bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.

aligncenterMiss me, but let me go.
