your mother was crying
  your father passed her a handkerchief
  their tear-stained faces
  looked to mine for a sign of grief
  a thousand raincoats
  always stand around too long
  but i stayed to talk with you
  after they had gone.
  the flowers i brought you
  were beginning to fade under the heavy rain
  your name on the card had run
  so i tried in vain to write it again
  they didn't understand you - no!
  they didn't even try
  i'm so glad that you left us now
  before you had the chance to die.
  i sat there for a long time,
  expecting to turn and see you there
  i ran my fingers through the long grass
  willing it to turn into your hair - and oh
  i'm gonna miss you, dear
  but i don't have to cry
  i'm so glad that you left us now,
  before you had the chance to die
  and oh, i'm going to miss you dear,
  but i'm not going to cry
  i'm so glad that your life stopped now,
  before it had the chance to die.
