wishing on a star that's just a satellite

If I should ever leave you whom I love To go along the Silent Way, grieve not, Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk Of me as if I were beside you there, (I’d come… I’d come, could I but find a way! But would not tears and grief be barriers?) And when you hear a song or see a bird I loved, Please do not let the thought of me be sad… For I am loving you just as I always have… You were so good to me! There are so many things I wanted still to do… So many things to say to you… Remember that I did not fear… It was just leaving you that was so hard to face… We cannot see Beyond… But this I know; I loved you so… ‘Twas heaven here with you!
