When my wife knew she was dying of pancreatic cancer, she chose the music for her own funeral. This was the recessional.

Love her. Condolences to her for the loss of her 21 yr old son. Angel from The Bay

Hi Melissa our mom passed in September of 2020. Your song just came to me literally out of the blue. Thank you I sang this to our mom through her transition unto Jesus! Thank you for such a truly heart felt therapeutic transition for me as well as I was literally both of my parents caregiver along with our local hospice team and family. So I personally want to Thank you Melissa Etheridge for your kind words during this past journey. Our parents burial will be May 25 2022. At our Lady of Lourdes in Venice Florida Again Thank you! 😊

She is one of the best

My favorite lines are the first 4 lines

I think this is one of my favorite songs by Melissa. I listened to it this other day and i felt like everything is going to be ok for me. Im starting over at a time of my life where most people are already settled. I used to think that it was ok to die. Now I hear is that its a second chance. Thank you Melissa. You've been a part of my life since the late 80's or early 90's wonderful music that touches my soul.

LOVE this song!!!!! It sends goosebumps through my entire body!

LYRICS: Don't be afraid Close your eyes Lay it all down Don't you cry Can't you see I'm going Where I can see the sun rise I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright I've always had to run I don't know just why Desire slowly smoking Under the midwest sky There's something waiting out there That says I've got to try I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright This town thinks I'm crazy They just think I'm strange Sometimes they want to own me Sometimes they wish I'd change But I can feel the thunder Underneath my feet I sold my soul for freedom It's lonely but it's sweet Don't be afraid Close your eyes Lay it all down Don't you cry Can't you see I'm going Where I can see the sun rise I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright
