Lyrics This Is Not The End - Clare Maguire

This Is Not The End

If it be your will to speak
Of memories we often shared
Talk to me of days gone by
Think of love and not despair
And when I’m gone, we’ll meet again
As often do the closest friends
So dry your eyes, and lay me down
I tell you this is not the end
And if someone must take my place
For I’ll be gone the longest time
I’ll wait, and I will understand
A heart of thorns must leave the mind
But when in time, I see your face
The scars will fade, the heart will mend
So dry your eyes, and lay me down
I tell you this is not the end
And from today, I wish you joy
From this day, I wish you peace
I hope that life will pass you by
As softly as the falling leaves
And when your heart is full again
Raise a glass for me my friend
And dry your eyes, and lay me down
I tell you this is not the end
Oh, dry your eyes, and lay me down
I tell you this is not the end
