May I go now?

Do you think the time is right?

May I say goodbye to pain filled days and endless lonely nights?

I've lived my life and done my best an example tried to be

So can I take that step beyond and set my spirit free?

I didn't want to go at first; I fought with all my might

But something seems to draw me now to a warm and living light

I want to go, I really do

It's difficult to stay

But I will try as best I can to live just one more day

To give you time to care for me and share your love and fears

I know you're sad and afraid, because I see your tears

I'll not be far, I promise that, and hope you'll always know

That my spirit will be close to you wherever you may go

Thank you so for loving me

You know I love you too

That's why it's so hard to say goodbye and end this life with you

So hold me now just one more time and let me hear you say

Because you care so much for me

You'll let me go today
