Pat's Song from Canadiana by Lori Paul feat. Rick Genge
Losing loved ones to anything other than old age is something we never get used to, nor make peace with, but when the grief of loss is upon us, we’re wise to bear the beams of love by holding up family and friends of our dear one, who’s gone too soon. Pat’s Song is for a kindred spirit, her partner Patrick, her children, and also for us, her bereft friends.

Lyrics
Pat's Song
Well, I flew home on a Stellar Jay, my spirit having flown away
Though in my heart I wished to stay
One more day with you love, one more day with you.
Here I am I wait for you beyond the mystery
I belong to my beloved and my beloved belongs to me
My darling girl, my precious son, my perfectly imperfect ones
You’ll feel me when the beams of sun shine down
To warm your faces, always in your graces
Here I am I wait for you beyond the mystery
I belong to my beloved son and he belongs to me
Here I am I wait for you beyond the mystery
I belong to my beloved daughter and she belongs to me
My breath is in the summer breeze, in star-illumined cedar trees
You’ll hear my voice in singing birds who call the morning light
Friends I’m with you evermore, I wait beyond this earthly shore
And I’ll meet you in your memory store
Until the end of time, I’m yours and you are mine.
Here I am, I wait for you, beyond the mystery
I belong to my beloved ones and you belong to me
Here I am, I wait for you, beyond the mystery
I belong to my beloved ones and you, you belong to me
