Do Not Weep for Me

Do not weep too much for me, for I'm not really gone!
It's just the earthly me that died... my spirit lives on.
Now, you know that I'm with God, and God is everywhere!
As free as air, my spirit soars; I can go anywhere!

Just look for me down memory lane, and hold my love in your heart.
As long as love's warm flame burns bright, we do not have to part!
You may find me in the garden, among the flowers or `neath the trees.
And you may hear my whisper in the in the sighing of the breeze.

You'll find me in the morning light or the gently falling rain.
Watch for me along your way, and I will ease your pain.

And when the night's upon you, just say a little prayer;
As you drift off to dreamland, I may even meet you there.

So keep in mind, my loved one, I'm not very far away.
As long as you remember me, I am with you everyday.
