I see you above
In that beautiful world
Where love is rule
And hate don't exist

I watch from below
Down here
Full of pain
Drawing near

Hold strong
Don't let go
To the things
You hold for dear life

I wish I'd let go
Of your wings
To let you fly
Far and away

I can't let go
And don't forget
You were loved
By me

I wish I'd let go
Of the pain and
See you in the
Next life with a
Hopeful mind of
Everlasting eternity

But I can't go on
Don't leave me
All alone
Drowned in fear
