silent goodbye...

This afternoon is Simon's funeral.

I was going to post about my weekend,

but this song came to my mind instead.

And the saddest thing

Under the sun above,

Is to say goodbye

To the ones you love.

All the things that I have known.

Be came my life my very own.

But before you know you say goodbye.

Oh, good time, goodbye

It's time to cry

But I will not weep nor make a scene

Just say "thank you, life for having been."

And the hardest thing

Under the sun above.

Is to say goodbye to the ones you love.

No I will not weep nor make a scene

I'm gonna say thank you, life for having been.

And the loudest cry

Under the sun above

Is the silent goodbye

From the ones you love.
