You passed away on a friday night
within your sleep went
a rare unusual dying cause
our life here is for rent.
I just heard that you were gone
it‘s so hard to believe
you seemed so lifely and so strong
a family in grieve.
Refrain:
Was there something open?
We will never know.
But I‘ll remember your light
and let go, and let go.
You are a mother of a child
you leave a spouse behind
a job, a school, a life so full
you are still in my mind.
We were good friends when we were young
we drank a lot of tea.
We laughed and joked, did cycling tours
imagined what would be.
Refrain:
Was there something open?
We will never know.
But I‘ll remember your light
and let go, and let go.
You were pretty, smart and cute
a beauty with long hair
self-assured, with high esteem
yet life was not always fair.
We both had an experience
of feeling lost, alone
so we stood by us as good friends
strenghtening our bones.
At your wedding down in south
I could not come to take part.
Life lead us in different ways
But you stayed in my heart.
Referain:
Was there something open?
We will never know.
But I‘ll remember your light
and let go, and let go.
