Please Do Not Cry

Please do not cry

I had to let go

It was my time to die

To rest in my meadow

As long as tears wet your pillow

I will not leave your side

My weeping willow

I will stay by your bed

And watch through the night

Caressing your head

With soft morning light

In my presence you can hide

I will wait, I will tarry

Your lover a ghost

And wait to carry

When word from the host

That you are set free

Unchained from this side

To float with me

Across the divide

That our souls might kiss

Eternity I would brave

To dare the great Abyss

For our love to save
