Your presence we miss, your memories we’ll treasure, loving you always, forgetting you, never. I Am Always With You When I am gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do, you mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears, but be thankful we had so many good years. I gave you my love, and you can only guess how much you've given me in happiness. I thank you for the love that you have shown, but now it is time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must , then let your grief be comforted by trust . It is only for a while that we must part, so treasure the memories within your heart. I won't be far away for life goes on. And if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can't see or touch me, I will be near , and if you listen with your heart, you'll hear. All my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and a "Welcome Home". “Cuando yo me vaya, déjenme ir, tengo muchas cosas que hacer y ver. No se aten a mí con sus lágrimas. Por los hermosos años que pasamos juntos, demos las gracias” “Yo les di mi amor, ustedes pensarán en la alegría que me manifestaron. Le doy las gracias a cada uno de ustedes por el amor que me brindaron. Pero ahora tengo que viajar sola” “Si quieren, pueden expresar su dolor, lloren un momento, dejen que la fe en Dios conforte su pena. Sólo nos separaremos por un tiempo, por lo que debemos mantener el recuerdo en nuestros corazones”. “La vida sigue adelante, no estaré lejos. Si me necesitan, piensen en mí y estaré con ustedes aunque no me miren ni me puedan tocar, yo estaré cerca. Sentirán el calor de mi amor en sus corazones”. “Y cuando ustedes tengan que viajar por este camino, yo los recibiré con una sonrisa y les daré la bienvenida”.
