Lyrics
Tuck me in
now I go
Once last glance
on one you've known
In my absence
a light will shine
We'll speak again
a different time
Proclaim me
released soul
I am neither above
nor below
Take comfort
in where I go
I am within you
cry no more
Temporary spaces
that must befall
Though only a lifetime
feels longer
Realized, but still
carried within
What is hard to give
so easily taken
There was one thing
you'd wished to say
And now you feel that chance
has worn away
Rest assured for
whatever it is
I already know
and forgive
