Lyric discussion by -Marge- 

This song is so wonderful! You can hear so much emotion in Charlie's voice that it makes me wanna cry.

It's so hard to say goodbye When I know it's for the last time I know it's for the best

This verse says that it's hard to say goodbye when someone close to you dies. But you know it's for the best because that person doesn't have to suffer anymore.

it won't be long 'til you get there And all the years move so slowly I'll see you on the otherside So go and carry her Please go and carry her

I think "you get there" means going to heaven. Where everything will be good and Charlie says they will meet eachother there. I think he asks God to carry her.

I read somewhere Charlie's quite religious so I think Charlie's asking God to carry her instead of death itself like BingerBuena said.
