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 set free? Miss me a little, 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 may take, and each must go alone, It’s all part of the Master’s plan, a step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, go to the friends we know, And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds. Miss me - But let me go.
