Lay me down to die,
Let my last tears drift from my eyes.
Let the wind blow through my hair,
For I will no longer care.

Place me gently upon the cold earth.
Let the morning dew wet my body through.
Let the earths moisture seep inside me.
And return me to its grey brown hue.

Place my ashen face to the west,
Looking to places where I have been.
Where I’ve felt a sun kissed smile on me,
And my mind can fade at peace with that final scene

Leave me as silent as the wind,
Blowing high in the atmosphere.
Don’t make a sound,
My memories of my lovers voice are all I want to hear.

Let me lay there on the ground,
Let me absorb my final fate.
Let me leave this world alone.
If she can’t be my final Date.
