This is just a song I heard a while ago, and I immediately thought of my grandfather and how my dad had been with him until the end.
If I got to choose a song to be played at my funeral, I think this would be it.
Lyrics:
I entered the room Sat by your bed all through the night I watched your daily fight I hardly knew The pain was almost more than I could bear And still I hear Your last words to me.
Heaven is a place nearby So I won't be so far away. And if you try and look for me Maybe you'll find me someday. Heaven is a place nearby So there's no need to say goodbye I wanna ask you not to cry I'll always be by your side. You just faded away You spread your wings you had flown Away to something unknown Wish I could bring you back. You're always on my mind About to tear myself apart. You have your special place in my heart.
Always heaven is a place nearby So I won't be so far away. And if you try and look for me Maybe you'll find me someday. Heaven is a place nearby So there's no need to say goodbye I wanna ask you not to cry I'll always be by your side.
And even when I go to sleep I still can hear your voice And those words I never will forget
