‘Edge of the Ocean’ was released in 2001 and it is about new beginnings. In the context of a funeral or memorial it would mean leaving the physical world and moving to the heavenly realm where “the sky is always blue” and they can “start all over again”.
Lyrics
There’s a place I dream about
Where the sun never goes out.
And the sky is deep and blue.
Won’t you take me there with you.Oh, we can begin again.
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in.
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again.Shaa lah lah lah lah lah lah

Shaa lah lah lah lah lah lah
Sha lah lah
Sha lah lah There’s a world I’ve always knownSomewhere far away from home
When I close my eyes I see
All the space and mysteryOhhh, we can begin again
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again Sha lah lah lah lah lah lahSha lah lah

Shed our skin, let the sun shine in
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over againAt the edge of the ocean
We can start over againSha lah lah lah lah lah lah
