Don’t cry for me now I have died, 
for I’m still here I’m by your side,
My body’s gone but my soul is here,
please don’t shed another tear, 
I am still here I’m all around, 
only my body lies in the ground. 
I am the snowflake that kisses your nose, 
I am the frost, that nips your toes. 
I am the sun, bringing you light,
I am the star, shining so bright. 
I am the rain, refreshing the earth, 
I am the laughter, I am the mirth. 
I am the bird, up in the sky, 
I am the cloud, that’s drifting by. 
I am the thoughts, inside your head, 
While I’m still there, I can’t be dead.
