The Last Goodbye

This is a little song that helped me through Monty's death. Maybe it will help you too.

The Last Goodbye By Billy Boyd

I saw the light fade from the sky

On the wind, I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover
My fallen brothers
I will say this last goodbye

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away

Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

Under cloud, beneath the stars
Over snow and winter's morn
I turn at last to paths that lead home

And though where the road then takes me,
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell

Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don't regret
Nor will I forget
All who took that road with me

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away

Over hill, and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

To these memories I will hold
With your blessing I will go
To turn at last to paths that lead home

And though where the road then takes me,
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell

I bid you a very fond farewell

Good Bye Monty

I too am very sad that Monty is gone. Whenever I heard about it, I...I just couldn't believe it. It seemed like a cruel joke. But it wasn't and I was very depressed. Then one day I wasn't depressed anymore because I realized something. I realized that yes, it's ok to be sad but nothing is so sad that it doesn't bring something positive. Monty may have died but look at how many people were inspired because of him. Now it's okay to mourn his death. It's ok to be sad. But let's be happy...Let's be happy that he lived in the first place, Let's be happy that he got to do what he got to. Let us appreciate what he has done and what he created.
