Beam Me Up

One of my friends will certainly become greatly concerned for me over this song. :) I first heard it on a Bereaved Parents site and it immediately spoke to me.  I'll admit, I have no idea who or what Pink is...a group, a person...no clue.  Nor did I care enough to look them up.  So be forewarned and listen or don't.  But the song, even with its few issues, is beautiful.

I would love to have another moment with William.  I don't think I would be able to speak, but to hold him just for a moment... I'm tired of being a fighter.  I understand this song.

Lyrics:
There's a whole other conversation going on
In a parallel universe
Where nothing breaks and nothing hurts
There's a waltz playing frozen in time
Blades of grass on tiny bare feet
I look at you and you're looking at me

Could you beam me up,
Give me a minute,
I don't know what I'd say in it
Probably just stare, 
Happy just to be there holding your face
Beam me up,
Let me be lighter, 
I'm tired of being a fighter,
I think, a minute's enough,
Just beam me up

Some black birds soaring in the sky,
Barely a breath like our one last sight
Tell me that was you, saying goodbye,
There are times I feel the shivering cold,
It only happens when I'm on my own,
That's how you tell me, I'm not alone

Could you beam me up,
Give me a minute,
I don't know what I'd say in it
Probably just stare, 
Happy just to be there holding your face
Beam me up,
Let me be lighter, 
I'm tired of being a fighter,
I think, a minute's enough,
Just beam me up

In my head, I see your baby blues
I hear your voice and I, 
I break in two and now there's
One of me, with you

So when I need you can I send you a sign
I'll burn a candle and turn off the lights
I'll pick a star and watch you shine

Just beam me up,
Give me a minute, 
I don't know what I'd say in it
Probably just stare, 
Happy just to be there, holding your face
Beam me up,
Let me be lighter, 
I'm tired of being a fighter,
I think, a minute's enough,
Beam me up
Beam me up
Beam me up
Could you beam me up
