You’ve Just Walked On Ahead of Me

Short funeral verse written by Joyce Grenfell with a message about finding ways to cope with grief carry on after losing a loved one.

You’ve Just Walked On Ahead of Me

And I’ve got to understand
You must release the ones you love
And let go of their hand.
I try and cope the best I can
But I’m missing you so much
If I could only see you
And once more feel your touch.
Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
But now and then I swear I feel
Your hand slip into mine.
