Don't tell the kids

When I die
Leave me behind
In that magic box you'll keep on your bedside
But don't wait for me to leave a sign
I'm already gone like an autumn leaf in the spring time
I'll become a fading memory lost in time

When I die
Leave me behind
In that magic box you'll keep on your bedside
But don't pray for me to leave a sign
I'm already gone like a gentle breeze on a calm day
I'll become a fading memory lost in time

But don't look back
There's nothing left of me
You can't turn back time
Leave what's left of me for my grave
And don't tell the kids
They won't understand
If it were up to me I would've given this a chance

But now I'm gone
What's left of me
Is in that magic box you'll keep
And when you're ready
Oh I'll become
A fading memory
A warm feeling on a cold day
An inspiration on a hard day
Lost in time
