Spirits Alive

Now you're leaving us
Now you're leaving us
As you sit beside them
Sharing a moment in time
Looking for consolation
Through these hurting eyes
That feels the pain
Hard to see them fade from life
Leaving us with only memories

It's not that time that I've
been waiting for
To see you become a shadow
As you go on and leave us all behind
We remain to keep your spirit alive

Inside they're facing this alone
You give strength!
Upon reflections of your
life before this
With connected eyes, we cry
These emotions lie
Acceptance of this now is
so hard to take

It's not the time that I've
been waiting for
To see you become a shadow
As you go on and leave us all behind
We remain to keep your spirit alive

Now that you are free
We keep the memories
Now that you are at peace
Within me I will always see
You were there to show me the way
Now I will walk this life alone

You will always be remembered
You will always be remembered
Within me
