"They all came here just to see Marlene.
No more doctors, no more treatments now,
Just friends and family.
When she walks into the backyard
You can see it on her face
Marlene is where the Hospice people
Call the sacred place."
"Marlene can see the light that shines out from the other side.
That light is all around her now, that light is in her eyes.
It flies off all her fingers as she dances with her son.
And it splashes on the faces of these people that she loves."
"Marlene is not quite here.
Marlene is not quite gone.
She's dancing somewhere between this yard
And the great big blue beyond."
"I think all that she is saying
Is make time for those you love.
As she dances between worlds here
In the backyard with her son."
