lyrics

When I'm Gone

There’s a tree in my old backyard,
That never could work very hard,
No it never grew fruit or leaves,
It just stood there for all of those years.

And I thought about this,
From when we were kids,
Oh to see how that tree carried on...
And there he was tall,
With cherries and all,
Seems that everything’s good when I’m gone.

In the school on the old boulevard,
There was paint chippin off o’ the walls,
And the lights were as dim as our eyes,
Cause we’d learned how to sleep in disguise.

And I thought about this,
From when we were kids,
And you’ll never believe what I saw...
They made it like new,
From the ground to the roof,
Seems that everything’s good when I’m gone.

La la la la La la la, la la la la La la la la...

Now I sit here alone in my room,
Making faces at pictures of you,
I remember you cried when I said,
It would somehow be us in the end.

And I think about this,
From when we were kids,
Cause you play in my mind like a song...
She’s pretty in white,
She’s the love of your life,
Seems that everything’s good...
When I’m gone.
