I Will Not Go Till I Sing This Song

I will not go so quietly; until I sing this song; I’ll sing you every part of it; before I’m dead and gone. I won't go away; with this song that’s in my heart; I’ll sing you pieces every day; till I’ve sang you every part. I’ll sing for you a love song; that the birds have chirped so sweet I’ll play for you Flamingo songs; with a rugged gypsy beat. I’ll reach out with my heart; and hope you understand; I’ll offer my compassion; and hold to you my hand. From the essence of my soul; I will sing to you my sorrow; And sacrifice myself for you; for all your new tomorrows. I will not go so quietly; with this song that you should see Remember when I sing to you; I’m leaving part of me. " Do you hear the melody; behind the words I write; I hope it grows inside of you; and brings you rest at night. No I will not go; till I’ve sung to you this song; And if it becomes a part of you; I’m never truly gone." Keep this with you always; it must someday be returned; So we may live another life; and the heart has what it yearns. It’s such an easy melody; and the words have easy rhymes; So we can take it everywhere; until there is no time. Never let that spirit die; no mater where I go; I’m living in this song I sing; so reflect on what you know. Hearts can never perish; our love can never die; Where ever in this life you go; darling there am I. .
