Why is it so hard when someone you love dies? Someone said their soul lives on and off it flies But if this thing is celestial or heavenly Why does it not sit right with me? Why is it a trial when you lose a loved one Since we’ve been monkeys, that’s billions gone You’d think it’d be built into our D.N.A If this was just evolutionary Where do you think they are? Can we see them again? Tell me what you think Someone tell me when It’s been said that they’re just sleeping Whilst I’m here gently weeping A God didn’t take, an angel he didn’t make And if they’re asleep perhaps they can wake I know it must sound like I’m dreaming It’s so difficult when we suffer such a loss To think that they’re there, doesn’t it make you feel worse Doing things to try to appease them Leaving food and flowers, that might just please them The pain we feel knowing that they’re gone Why would they haunt us, it just must be wrong In limbo, both directions are denied Cos they didn’t finish something whilst they were alive Where do you think they are? Can we see them again? Tell me what you think Someone tell me when I just think that they’re just sleeping Whilst I’m here gently weeping A God didn’t take, an angel he didn’t make And if they’re asleep one day they can wake I know it must sound like I’m teaching I haven’t come up with this on my own By myself, I’d never have known One day I was shown Mind blown I now know that they’re just sleeping Whilst I’m here gently weeping A God didn’t take, an angel he didn’t make And if they’re asleep then soon they will wake I know it must sound like I’m preaching It makes sense that they’re just sleeping Them I will miss But it gives me some peace That they haven’t received their last kiss The memory of them I’ll be keeping They’re just sleeping
