Even When I’m Gone
There's a light in my heart
that can't be contained,
you knew right from the start
that there's no one here to blame.
And my world it drifts apart
from the one that remains
and I now long for this place and
I want to be free from these chains.
So If I can write a song,
so you won't forget my name,
a song so beautiful,
I can get my wings.
So send me off with your love,
I'll fly like a dove into the sunset of my teenage adolescence
and if you're ever feeling alone
know that I'll never forget you
even when I'm gone.
So they tell me that today
is the day I'll pass away
even though my heart is young
I will face this day with all
my gratitude,
my humbleness,
my bravery,
I will open up the doors into the sky so I can ask God why.
So send me off with your love,
I'll fly like a dove into the sunset of my teenage adolescence
and if you're ever feeling alone
know that I'll never forget you,
even when I'm gone.
How long will you hold onto my photograph, oh no,
how long will my memory last when my body's gone,
how long, how long, how long, will I stay for you, for you?
So send me off with your love,
we'll fly like a dove we'll fly like a dove, oh, but if you're ever feeling alone know that I'll never forget you
even when I'm gone.
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone...
that can't be contained,
you knew right from the start
that there's no one here to blame.
And my world it drifts apart
from the one that remains
and I now long for this place and
I want to be free from these chains.
So If I can write a song,
so you won't forget my name,
a song so beautiful,
I can get my wings.
So send me off with your love,
I'll fly like a dove into the sunset of my teenage adolescence
and if you're ever feeling alone
know that I'll never forget you
even when I'm gone.
So they tell me that today
is the day I'll pass away
even though my heart is young
I will face this day with all
my gratitude,
my humbleness,
my bravery,
I will open up the doors into the sky so I can ask God why.
So send me off with your love,
I'll fly like a dove into the sunset of my teenage adolescence
and if you're ever feeling alone
know that I'll never forget you,
even when I'm gone.
How long will you hold onto my photograph, oh no,
how long will my memory last when my body's gone,
how long, how long, how long, will I stay for you, for you?
So send me off with your love,
we'll fly like a dove we'll fly like a dove, oh, but if you're ever feeling alone know that I'll never forget you
even when I'm gone.
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone
Even when I'm gone...
