Lyrics

There's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone
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
I won't breathe the bracing air when I'm gone
I can't even worry 'bout my cares when I'm gone
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
I won't be running from the rain when I'm gone
I can't even suffer from the pain when I'm gone
I 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
Won't see the golden of the sun when I'm gone
And the evenings and the mornings will be one when I'm gone
I can't be singing louder than the gardens 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
And the sands will be shifting from my sight when I'm gone
Can't add my name to the five 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 to you 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
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
Guess I'll have to do it
Guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
