Miss Me But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I hope you will realize
My pain at last is free.
Miss me a little…but not too long
And not with your head bowed low,
Remember that love we once shared
Miss me….but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone,
It’s all a part of a master plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely
and sick at heart
Just go to some friends you know,
Try burying your sorrows
in some good deeds,
Miss me ….but let me go.
