When I'm Gone
The world is gettin darker and I'm running out of breath
Ain't got much time, I ain't got much time
And just because I leave
It don't mean I love you any less
I'm just out of time, I'm just out of time
Try your best to shake the smell of flowers at my wake
Remember how I laughed when we went fishing at the lake
And how I woke you up singing silly little songs
Just keep me in your heart and I'll be with you when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on
Oh when I'm gone
You and your sisters grow on up and settle down
Believe 'em when they tell you that your daddy would be proud
Remember what they say about the darkest time of night
There were the darkest parts of me
But you were the ones that I got right
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on
Oh when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long, long gone
You carry on, you carry on
Oh when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on, you carry on
When I'm gone
The world is gettin darker and I'm running out of breath
Just because I leave it don't mean I love you any less
Ain't got much time, I ain't got much time
And just because I leave
It don't mean I love you any less
I'm just out of time, I'm just out of time
Try your best to shake the smell of flowers at my wake
Remember how I laughed when we went fishing at the lake
And how I woke you up singing silly little songs
Just keep me in your heart and I'll be with you when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on
Oh when I'm gone
You and your sisters grow on up and settle down
Believe 'em when they tell you that your daddy would be proud
Remember what they say about the darkest time of night
There were the darkest parts of me
But you were the ones that I got right
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on
Oh when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long, long gone
You carry on, you carry on
Oh when I'm gone
Oh when I'm gone
I won't be long gone
You carry on, you carry on
When I'm gone
The world is gettin darker and I'm running out of breath
Just because I leave it don't mean I love you any less
