In early dawn my father came by He said listen, there is nothing I could do The garden is beautiful and the haze is hanging low Oh how I surrender to grief The lake is very still and deep and dark and heavy And a thousand eyes are watching when I go Today I leave it all behind And all my loved ones are here Only a few friends came by this morning But the ones I love the most where there to comfort me My love was there too, dressed in my favourite clothes, Standing in the morning light She asked me how it feels, I said don't ask me now The water guides me when I go Today I leave it all behind And all my loved ones are here
