lyrics:

1
will you whisper to me
2
in my dreams?
         1
would you make the sun shine
       2
when inside i scream?
3
your name is called from
    1                       2
the lips of those of us who mourn
1                 2
when our world is torn

1
could i touch your face
2
one last time
         1
so i can say the words that
      2
still linger in my mind?
3                       1
i made you swear not to ever leave
                    2
guess god had other plans
   1              2
so how could i be mad

      1                              2
but i don't want you to be earthbound
         1                 2
you don't need my grief to way you down
                5
just before you fly
                  6
couldn't you just try
              2         1 2 1
to give me one good bye?

                   2
flashing lites or a ringing bell
      1                     2
are they messages that in time will tell,
3                                 1
tell us all that you're alive and well?
                   2
or are we all just fools
     1                   2
to believe beyond the rules?

      1                              2
but i don't want you to be earthbound
         1                 2
you don't need my grief to way you down
                5
just before you fly
                  6
couldn't you just try
              2
to give me one good bye?

4                   2
life took us on this roller coaster
       4                        2
now i'm holding flowers in this empty park
5     6                    7          8
i heard it's better on the other side
    4
but how could any place be better
        9
without me?
   1  2  1  2
me

3                             1
your name is called from the lips
                  2
of those of us who mourn
1             2
when our world is torn

      1                              2
but i don't want you to be earthbound
        1                              2
you don't need my grief to way you down
                3
just before you fly
                  6
couldn't you just try
              2          1  2  1  2...
to give me one good bye?


1                               10
but i don't want you to be earthbound
