When I'm Gone Songtext
von Windborne

There′s no place in this world where I'll belong when I′m gone
And I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
You won′t find me singing on this song when I′m gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I′m here

And I won't breathe the bracing air when I′m gone
And I can't even worry ′bout my cares when I'm gone
I won't be asked to do my share when I′m gone
So I guess I′ll have to do it while I'm here

And I won′t be running from the rain when I'm gone
And I can′t even suffer from the pain when I'm gone
Can′t say who's to praise and who's to blame when I′m gone
So I guess I′ll have to do it while I'm here


I won′t see the golden of the sun when I'm gone
The evenings and the mornings will be one when I′m gone
Can't be singing louder than the guns when I′m gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

All my days won′t be dances of delight when I′m gone
The sands will be shifting from my sight when I'm gone
Can′t add my name into the fight when I'm gone
So I guess I′ll have to do it while I'm here

I won′t be laughing at the lies when I'm gone
I can't question how or when or why when I′m gone
Can′t live proud enough to die when I'm gone
So I guess I′ll have to do it while I'm here

There′s no place in this world where I'll belong when I′m gone
And I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
You won′t find me singing on this song when I′m gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I′m here
