when i die

When I die Scatter my ashes But not too close to the sea 'Cause I can't swim When I die Mail all my postcards 'Cause there's no address to return to Anymore anyway And if the world hasn't burned by then If the sky's still blue I will always wake For the sunrise Even though I'm s'pposed to sleep For forever And I will always wait For the encore Even though I'm s'pposed to Go home When I die Bury my ashes So I can grow into a tree Maybe a redwood When I die Leave me a notebook So I can write when I'm sad Or feel a heart full of love When I die Buy me a house in the clouds With extra rooms and a bar For when my friends all arrive When I die Sell my piano To someone else's little kid So they can learn Rachmaninoff And if the world hasn't burned by then If the sky's still blue I will always wake For the sunrise Even though I'm s'pposed to sleep For forever And I will always wait For the encore Even though I'm s'pposed to Go home Do we finally get signal from inside the subway? Do we ever get tired of long summer nights? Are they done building buildings at ungodly hours? And when I return will you greet me with flowers? And I will always wake For the sunrise Even though I'm s'pposed to sleep For forever And I will always wait For the encore Even though I'm s'pposed to Go home
