Don’t forget me; make a shrine to hold me
Safe and warm within your faithful heart;
Weave a web of happy thoughts to fold me
In all remembrance, when we part.
At night, I light a lamp
So even in the long dark hours
The little spark of my thoughts of you
Could light the moment
As I read my life’s pages back
To the times
When you were still with me.
If you need a quiet place,
A perfect haven to rest;
Come let me be,
You can lie on my chest.
There you will hear a single sound,
A love song at its best;
It’s there that you will hear,
The whisper of my heartbeats.
Hey, stay with me
And let me be
Your quiet place to rest.
