Miss Me But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.

Why cry for a soul that is free?
Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low,

Remember the love
that we once shared
Miss me-but let me go.

For this is a journey
that we all must take,
And each must go alone,

It's all a part of the master plan
A step on the road home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart,
Go to the friends we know.
And bury your sorrows
in doing good deeds,

Miss me-but let me go.
