[Verse 1]
When I go, I want to go
Soft as ash in the palm of dawn
To dissolve and melt away
Till my name is almost gone

I want to spread on this earth
In finest dust so rare
One small breath in the open field
And I am everywhere

[Pre-Chorus]
At one with life
Let the circle turn
Recycled on and on
Let the ember learn

[Chorus]
Forever here, forever fair
(Forever fair)
Forever shone by sun and moon
(And moon)
I want to be at home
I want to be at home
Sharing all I have ever been
With whom I may become

[Verse 2]
Let the river take my weight
Let the roots keep what remains
In the furrow, in the clay
In the steam after the rain

If my hands can leave a trace
Let it feed some other seed
If my heart can leave a light
Let it bloom where I may not see

[Pre-Chorus]
At one with life
Let the circle turn
Recycled on and on
Let the ember learn

[Chorus]
Forever here, forever fair
(Forever fair)
Forever shone by sun and moon
(And moon)
I want to be at home
I want to be at home
Sharing all I have ever been
With whom I may become

[Bridge]
Take me in the fallen leaves
Take me in the ocean foam
Take me in the breaking dawn
And make me part of home

No need to keep me whole
No need to keep me still
Let me loose into the world
And love me after will

[Final Chorus]
Forever here, forever fair
(Forever fair)
Forever shone by sun and moon
(And moon)
I want to be at home
I want to be at home
Sharing all I have ever been
With whom I may become

Forever here, forever fair
(Forever fair)
Forever shone by sun and moon
(And moon)
I want to be at home
I want to be at home
Sharing all I have ever been
With whom I may become….
