Give Me Away

Give Me Away Words and music by Philip Scott Poli c2020
(Based on the poem Epitaph By Merrit Malloy)
I had a dream it was yesterday
And you were here with me
My old town Glasgow row house stay
Making you toast and tea

Alakazam, and it’s back to now
You’re sleeping in your grave
But you’re still here with me somehow
In all the love you gave

People die but love remains past the grieving of the day
When all that’s left is the love, we give it, give it away

I had a dream my time had come
Folks gathered near in woe
And I tried to whisper through the veil
Miss me but let me go

People die but love remains past the grieving of the day
When all that’s left of me is love, give me
Give me away
