lyrics

I’d rather be the one who’s leaving
Than the one who’s left behind
I hope you knew I spent with you
The best years of my life

But the other side of this great divide
Is where you must remain
Though you are always with me
We will never meet again

BRIDGE
An early April afternoon so alive with nature’s sounds
We gathered few will watch as you are taken by the ground

The books I read you, meals I fed you
Whilst in that bed you lay
Those last few days the morphine haze
Stole most of you away

It seemed a lifetime
Waiting for this moment to arrive
Though hardly unexpected
It still comes as some surprise

BRIDGE
An early April afternoon so alive with nature’s sounds
We gathered few will watch as you are taken by the ground
