My Death Song

No I don't wanna die.. not yet anyway. And I don't want to freak out my readers (if there are any). 

Each one of us has a particular song for every occasion/event (e.g. Break-up song, Theme song of your gf/bf, etc.) When I heard this song, I decided that I want this to be my 'death song'. I even imagined myself recording this song and by the time that I'm not in this world anymore, my family or friends will be playing this song that I recorded during my wake/burial. Creepy eh? Hehehe... Okay, maybe I'll have to think twice about that. :)

Anyway, here's the song:

"Dream" by Priscilla Ahn

I was a little girl

Alone in my little world
Who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees,
And fed my house guests bark and leaves,
And laughed in my pretty bed of green.

I had a dream

That I could fly
From the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark

Through woods grown behind the park,
I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me,
God answered in silent reverie.
I said a prayer and fell asleep.

I had a dream

That I could fly
From the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Now I'm old and feeling grey.

I don't know what's left to say
About this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well,
There's many tales I've lived to tell.
I'm ready now,
I'm ready now,
I'm ready now
To fly from the highest wing.

I had a dream.
