For Those I'll Leave Behind
Some men die trying to make it to the moon
Others croak choking on a silver spoon
From the cities to the desert towns
There ain't no way to get around
The fact that my death is coming soon
Well, I was born in the land of the free
I will die where the Spirit carries me
It could be right here on the floor
Or on some distant sunlit shore
I don't know when, I just know that it will be
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
Some men say that you've all the luck you will
Others say you must kill or you'll be killed
But what good are faith and trust
If love gets buried in the dust
Kicked up by a fearful heart that's never filled?
Let's fill it up
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
And at that hour when Death for me doth come
I'll be thinking of all I've ever loved
As sure as the sky is blue
My darling wife, I'll think of you
You're my home, you're that place where I am from
You too must go, you must go
You must bleed your heart
You must go, you must go
You must leave your mark
You must go, you must go
You must fight the dark
For all those you'll leave behind
Come on
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
For all those I'll leave behind
Others croak choking on a silver spoon
From the cities to the desert towns
There ain't no way to get around
The fact that my death is coming soon
Well, I was born in the land of the free
I will die where the Spirit carries me
It could be right here on the floor
Or on some distant sunlit shore
I don't know when, I just know that it will be
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
Some men say that you've all the luck you will
Others say you must kill or you'll be killed
But what good are faith and trust
If love gets buried in the dust
Kicked up by a fearful heart that's never filled?
Let's fill it up
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
And at that hour when Death for me doth come
I'll be thinking of all I've ever loved
As sure as the sky is blue
My darling wife, I'll think of you
You're my home, you're that place where I am from
You too must go, you must go
You must bleed your heart
You must go, you must go
You must leave your mark
You must go, you must go
You must fight the dark
For all those you'll leave behind
Come on
I will go, I will go
I will bleed my heart
I will go, I will go
I will leave my mark
I will go, I will go
I will fight the dark
For all those I'll leave behind
For all those I'll leave behind
