What if I was no longer living here?
I mean, with my feet on earth
What if you could not see me smile
Or even hear me curse
Look, I know I’ve been no picnic.
Not a real bundle of joy.
But I tried to make all the every days,
Comfortable for you boys
So, when I do escape this realm,
And hover close above
I need you to know all was not lost
On cleaning with a white glove.
I wanted to give you perfection,
Make your life as easy as pie.
So, when you are sad do not wonder
Never wonder why.
Why I had to go away, why I am no longer
At your beck and call
I am still a hovering and watching over all
I will never be far from your side.
Nor will I ever you forsake.
So, on those lonely dismal days,
Please do from my soul partake
That I was strength and I enjoyed,
Every single minute.
And though now I am free and at peace,
No world has worth without you in it.
So, from the clouds and from the trees,
I am still pulling those puppet strings.
And in the wind, you’ll hear my voice
Whispering all those annoying things
I will not cease to love you, and never stop to care
About your needs and dreams
No, my loves, I will always be near.
So, hear the birds and watch the clouds
‘Cause you will find me close.
Never for my departure should you ever be ramose.
Remember me and all I taught,
And all still you have to teach.
And think of me every single time
You are walking on the beach.
