Don’t cry for me (Deborah Chaplin)
Don’t cry for me I am not far
I am here and I walk in your shadow
When you need me – I’ll hold your hand and walk beside you
If you feel a light breeze on your cheek – it may well be me
Kissing you gently – so don’t brush it away
I loved you in life as you loved me
I’ll love you in death
Don’t cry for me
Smile as you remember me
Laugh out loud as you recall the silly things we shared
Laugh out loud remembering the fun
For I am not far
Don’t cry for me
When you need me – call my name
I hear you everywhere
I feel you too
I lived a live of love, of joy, of revelry
You see when I walked among the living
I experienced much and relished in the giving
I took the time to smell the flowers
I appreciated all that surrounded me
So you see, I can say with all honesty
That today is not a sad day
Oh no, not for me
