Please don’t cry
I’m not really gone
When you look out the window
I’ll be standing on the lawn
Please don’t cry
I’ll see you again
Don’t be sad
Keep up your chin
Please don’t cry
I’m not really dead
When you cry yourself to sleep
I’ll be by your bed
Please don’t cry
Just because we had to part
As long as you remember me
I’ll live in your heart
Please don’t cry
I’m not gone forever
I’ll be a cool and gentle breeze
In hot summer weather
Please don’t cry
Don’t run and hide
When you need a shoulder to lean on
I’ll be by your side
Please don’t cry
When you’re sad and weak
I’ll be there
To kiss you on the cheek
Please don’t cry
This is just a goodbye
So please, oh please
Baby, do not cry
