You must have been special
To the people who loved you
They built a shrine because they loved you
And you and I are close without meeting

You must have been special
I see they carved it in the marble
I see they let you rest in the hill
And you and I are close without meeting

Oh I feel a certain sadness with you
Taken from the life which kept you
Now the dead leaves gather 'round you
They must feel close without meeting you

You must have been special
I see you have a thousand neighbors
In Heaven's private sector
And you and I are close without meeting

You must have been special
I see they left you here in great care
Where all the earthly evils have fear
And you and I are close without meeting
