Lyrics
On the day I went away
Goodbye
Was all I had to say
Now I
I want to come again and stay
Oh my my
Smile and that will mean
I may
'Cause I've seen
Oh
blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realize
I'm going home
I'm going home
(I'm going home)
Everywhere it's been the same
Real lame
Like I'm outside in the rain
Real lame
Free to try and find the game
Real lame
Cards for sorrow
Cards for pain
'Cause I've seen
oh
Blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realize
I'm going home
I'm going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
Loved this - Funerals could be so much more meaningful if people just tried to make them more personal and didn't just adopt "what has always been done".
I believe it's necessary to honor a person according to his/her personality... and if it's a humorous funeral song that fits him the best, then no one will feel uncomfortable as they listen to it, since it's just the type of music that the person who died would have wanted. No one would have expected less of him/her.
