Although the body you’ll never see
The soul my friend has been set free
You’ve lost a part of you that you will always love,
The reasons why he left, he had to go above
To tell our Master of the work he’s done on earth
And let Him know it isn’t easy working since birth
Although the body you’ll never see
The soul my friend has been set free
Even in death and in sorrow there’s a bright side
Just close your eyes and search your mind
It is not easy to say goodbye
But all we can do is only to try
Although the body you’ll never see
The soul my friend has been set free
He’s the only one you could really count on
When you needed him most, you found him gone
Don’t be too sad dear Mrs. D
For heaven’s the lap of luxury
Although the body you’ll never see
The soul my friend has been set free
