I'm going to have this one played at my funeral :

I'm going where the sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
When the writer of that song (Harry Nillson) was being lowered into his grave his friends sang one of his songs. Thought you would like their choice of songs.

When I was a child,
I spoke as a child.
God, I wish I could remember what I said.


Dies it have to be R&R, or are other song lyrics also acceptable? If so:

There is a gap in everything - that's where the light gets in.

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

The road goes on forever and the party never ends.


Well the night's forlorn
And the morning's born
And the morning shines
With the lights of love
And you'll miss sunrise
If you close your eyes
And that would break
My heart in two

Happiness runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea
Everybody is a part of everything anyway
You can have everything if you let yourself see
You can have everything if you let yourself be
(Happiness Runs by Donovan)

Before you slip into...unconsciousness.
I'd like to have, another kiss.
Another flashing chance at bliss.
Another kiss, another kiss.
