Song Lyrics
Perfect Day (For A Funeral)
by Silvia Hartmann
The sun is shining winterbright
and the sky is winter pale blue
and I'm walking thru leafless winterwood
on my final journey with you, with you
it seems such a long long time
since I have walked so alone
you were with me in thought
through each day and night
and without you I feel forlorn, and so alone,
but its time now that I gave you rest,
that I let myself be free
to consign the past and you to a place of rest
and to accept a future for me
a future for me
Its a perfect day for a funeral,
to tell you I once loved you so
its a perfect day for a funeral
a perfect day to let go
to let you go
So I take my jar filled with memories
sealed with love and rose-red wax
and I plant you in a shallow grave
and I leave without turning back,
without looking back
and the suns still shining winterwhite
and the birds sing a promise of spring
and I walk with my eyes on the winterskies
and the hope what the future will bring
what my future will bring
It was a perfect day for your funeral,
to tell you I once loved you so
its a perfect day for a funeral
a perfect day to let go
to let you go. |
