A Final Goodbye
I walk into the funeral home, and all I see
 Are smiling faces staring back at me
 Everbody around me is smiling
 But deep down, their souls are crying
 I want to scream, I want to cry
 But I just take a seat avoiding watching eyes
 The preacher comes in and begins to pray
 I'm so tempted to get up and just walk away
 But instead I decide to stay
 As I quickly wipe the tears away
 I look at your body, lifeless and so cold
 You knew were dieing, and stayed so strong and bold
 The preacher finishes his prayer and everyone leaves
 I begin to cry as I fall to my knees
 As I close my eyes and begin to pray
 I get a feeling that everything will be O.K. 
 I stand up and walk away
 As the sun begins to set on that cold summer day
 I whisper goodbye, I know you'll be O.K. 
 I hope to see you again, in heaven some day
