琳恩·馬蓮《a place nearby》（heaven is a place nearby ），大意即：天堂其實並不遙遠，也許就是我們身邊，雖然人已不在，但只要用心體會，也能感到對方的溫存，因為天堂並不遙遠。

據說是她寫給一個離去的年輕朋友的。

下附歌詞及譯文：

i entered the room 我走進房間.

sat by your bed all through the night 整夜坐在你床邊

i watched your daily fight 我看著你每天與病魔搏鬥.

i hardly knew 我僅僅知道

the pain was almost more than i could bear 那樣的痛苦我所難以承受的

and still i hear 我仍然能聽見

your last words to me 你給我的臨終遺言

heaven is a place nearby 天堂是一個很近的地方

so i wont be so far away 所以我將離你不遠

and if you try and look for me 如果你嘗試著尋找我

maybe you will find me someday 也許某天你將會找到我

heaven is a place nearby 天堂是一個很近的地方

so there is no need to say goodbye 所以沒有必要說再見

i wanna ask you not to cry 我想要告誡你不要哭泣

i will always be by your side 我將一直在你身邊!

you just faded away 你還是逐漸衰弱下去

you spread your wings you had flown 你已經展翅飛離

away to something unknown 離開我去到那未知的地方

you are always on my mind 我一直惦念著你

about to tear myself apart.為我與你的分離去而哭泣.

you have your special place in my heart 你在我心中有特別的意義

always heaven is a place nearby 天堂是一個很近的地方

so i wont be so far away 所以我將離你不遠

and if you try and look for me 如果你嘗試著尋找我

maybe you will find me someday 也許某天你將會找到我

and even when i go to sleep 即使我睡著了

i still can hear your voice 我仍然能聽到你的聲音

and those words 你的那些話語

i never will forget 我從未忘記

heaven is a place nearby 天堂是一個很近的地方

so i wont be so far away 所以我將離你不遠
