Shed no Tears - song by Pat

Chorus

Shed no tears for me, put a smile upon your face,

I have finally gone home to a far better place.

There is no pain here and my soul is free,

you will plant a tree to remember me.

(1)

Walk on slowly up the hill,

gather round my open grave.

Sing eternal memory,

harden hearts, and be brave.

Chorus

(2)

Throw the branches and the leaves,

I will take your love to share.

Toss red roses one by one,

lower me gently with a prayer.

Chorus

(3)

Come together, hand in hand,

see my life, I took a chance.

Hear the stories and the jokes,

and the time of Riverdance.

Chorus
