Lyrics

There's no place in this world where I belong when I'm gone
I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
Find me singing on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
My days won't be dances after light when I'm gone
The sands will be shifting from my sights when I'm gone
Can't add my name to the fight when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
And I won't see the flowing of the tide when I'm gone
The joys of love will not be mine when I'm gone
My pen won't pour the lyric right 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
I won't be worried about my cares when I'm gone
Can't be asked to do my share when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to it while I'm here
And I won't be running from the rain when I'm gone
I won't even suffer from the pain when I'm gone
Can't see 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 would 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
And I won't be laughing at the lights when I'm gone
Won't question where, 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 belong when I'm gone
I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
Find be singing on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
