When I finally close my eyes
And sound around me slowly dies
I feel at peace am not afraid
Am slowly loosing sense of weight

Gravity is now defeated
The afterlife is warmly greeted
My soul is slowly gaining height
As it is drawn towards the light

And when you miss me
And it’s hard to face reality
Burn a candle for me
Burn a candle for me

Silence slowly closes in
I feel so empty in my skin
I say goodbye with all my pride
And move on to the other side

I’m sorry I’m no longer there
No more loving endless stare
And when it’s sometimes hard to bear
You know from up here I still care

And when you miss me, and it’s hard to face reality
Burn a candle for me, burn a candle for me

For you life goes on, every day sees a new dawn
Live life to the max
But every now and then please think of me, and try to relax

But when you miss me
This permanent absentee
Burn a candle for me, burn a candle for me
