The Dance Eternal

Wrap me in crisp white linen Gently close my coffin door Lay me to rest six feet under Weep for me no more Hold fast memories of days gone by When our lives would intertwine I pray they are ones you cherished As much as i cherished mine. I thank you all for the final farewells As i head for heavenly skies Know my time with you all was special But i must leave and say good bye. One day i know we will meet again One day when your time is due Know that i will be waiting there Ive saved an eternal waltz for you
