Dearly departed,
I need you more than ever.
Tell me things I'll never know without you there.
Paint me a picture,
of a flowing river,
make it sunny outside.
Tell me it's the real world,
that everything's that easy,
and my love never passed me by.
Dearly departed,
write me a letter,
address it to the guy who was.
A weeping willow,
the green grass below,
and sign from the guy who is.
Tell me your name,
nothing more, just so I know.
