Miss me a little, but not too long and not with a head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared. For this is a journey that we all must take, and each must go alone. It's all part of the Master's plan: a step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart; go to the friends we knew and bury your sorrow in doing good deeds. Miss me; but let me go."
