about

I originally wrote this song for myself and had not completed the full recording. But as one of my older brothers passed away, I finished the track for use in his memorial service, with just my voice and piano. I specifically added the rain background for its symbolism of both good and bad in life...

lyrics

And when I've gone, don't cry for me,
Don't wonder where I've gone to be,
Just carry on my memory,
But don't cry for me I'll be at peace.

There wasn't time for everything,
That I had hoped my life would bring,
It might not seem fair, or plain to see,
But that's just the way it has to be.

So many years have come and gone,
Some brought me good and some brought me harm,
But every trial that I went through,
was worth it all to be with you.

So when that day does come for me,
Remember when you start to grieve,
That I'm still here in memory,
But don't cry for me I'll be at peace,
No, don't cry for me because I'll be at peace.
