When I’m Gone Lyrics

A bright sunrise will contradict the heavy fault that weighs you downIn spite of all the funeral songsThe birds will make their joyful soundsYou wonder why the earth still movesYou wonder how youll carry onBut youll be okay on that first day when Im goneDusk will come with fireflies and whippoorwill and crickets callAnd every star will take its placeAnd silvery gown and purple shawlYoull lie down in our big bedDread the dark and dread the dawnBut youll be alright on that first night when Im goneYou will reach for me in vainYoull be whispering my nameAs if sorrow were your friendAnd this world so in the endBut life will call with daffodilAnd morning glorious blue skiesYoull think of me some memoryAnd softly smile to your surpriseAnd even though you love me stillYou will know where you belongJust give it time well both be fineWhen Im goneYou might also likeEmbedCancel

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
