Story Behind The Song
We, as souls, choose to incarnate into Earthly form, and part of the agreement with that choice, is that we forget certain things, enabling us to have an authentic experience and learn whatever it is we requested before coming. Here, a Soul has just returned from a lifetime on Earth, and is still a bit stunned. A caring Spirit is re-explaining the true nature of things, and reminding the Soul of the agreement to forget while on Earth.
Song Description
A heartfelt description of what it might be like to arrive in the afterlife, and receive a gentle bit of guidance and welcome. A clear explanation of how we deliberately choose to forget what we Know about the reality of Spirit, so our Earthly experience can be richer and more valuable.

Lyrics
My dear soul, I see you're back again.
I know you cannot remember when.
You probably think you've never been
To this dream-filled place before
You left a world of pain and doubt,
Where it seemed that something's been left out.
You constantly wondered "what's it all about?"
There just should be something more.
You'd forgotten you'd been here before.
Just lay back now -- You can rest in my embrace.
Just let it be now -- You are a soul here in this perfect place.
Just rest easy -- This is the end of time and space.
Just let it go now -- You are dissolving into Grace.
Just lay back now -- You can rest in my embrace.
Just let it be now -- You are a soul here in this perfect place.
Just rest easy -- This is the end of time and space.
Just let it go now -- You are dissolving into Grace.
The last time you left, you shed your wings.
Put away your miracles and things.
"I will not forget!" I heard you sing
As you walked right out the door.
When you left me last, you proudly swore,
You'd remember all of this and more.
You would not succumb to Holy War.
And you'd stay dead certain at your core.
You'd remember you've been here before.
Just lay back now -- You can rest in my embrace.
Just let it be now -- You are a soul here in this perfect place.
Just rest easy -- This is the end of time and space.
Just let it go now -- You are dissolving into Grace.
