I'm already there a Tribute to Jim Henson's memory

He called him on the phone
From a local hospital
Just to hear him say goodbye one more time
And when he heard the sound
Of the muppets laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little Kermit came on the phone
And said "Jim when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in Ernie's hair
I'm Bert's paper clips
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm Big Birds imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there
he got back on the phone
Said I really miss you Jim Henson
Don't worry about the muppts they'll be alright
Wish I we could do Bert and Ernie again standing right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And we'll do it all over again
we'll do all those muppet movies again
So turn out the light and close your eyes
I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the muppet movies you watch
I'm Big Birds feet
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine Ernie's in hair
I'm Bert's paper clips
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already there
then Jim Henson closes his eyes
