To Lady Diana The Princess Of Wales
by

If I could write you a letter in Heaven
Here's what I think it would say
That your absence has made my heart sadder
And I've missed you, every day
If I could write you a letter in Heaven
This might be the way it would sound
The world is a grimmer, less colourful place
Because you're no longer around
We miss you, Diana
You were a friend
To one billion people, or two
We love you, Diana
And now that you're gone
What is this poor world to do?
We poison each other and poison ourselves
Our children and even our pets
We're killing ourselves and calling it pleasure
With nasty things like cigarettes
We needed you, Di
And you've gone away
And no one could e'er take your place
At the front of the crowd
In this silly old world
Of this silly old, sad human race
