When I'm Gone

My last breath

I wanna take with a smile

And no regrets

No hope of turnin' back that dial

Let the story I've written

Be somethin' worth leavin' behind

[Chorus:]

When I'm gone

Tell them I laughed more than I shed tears

When I'm gone

Tell them I stared down all my fears

That I danced on a wire and I walked through the fire

That I lived every moment till that moment retired

So my life goes on, goes on when I'm gone

(Oh, oh, oh) when I'm gone

Tell them I left that town

But it never left my soul

That I settled down but I never got old

If the house was packed and all raised a glass as the credits rolled

[Chorus]

Time don't last forever

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Time don't last forever

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

When I'm gone

Let my life go on, go on, go on

[Chorus]
