Saying goodbye

This short, simple song is a reflection on the experience of bereavement. It was written for a young mother who lost her child but may sing to anyone who has experienced bereavement. 

Personally I found the words of Julian of Norwich to be of great comfort when overwhelmed in a sea of  unfathomable pain, the sort of which accompanies the loss of one's children:
  all shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
I don't really understand why, but I hear them ringing faintly and indistinctly when all seems excruciatingly and hopelessly senseless.
