Lyrics to When I'm Gone
LyricsSuggest a correction ↗
My last breath, I wanna take with a smile
And no regrets, no hope of turning back that dial
Let the story I've written be something worth leaving behindWhen 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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on when I'm gone
Oh, oh
When I'm GoneTell him 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 we all raised a glass as the credits rolled
My last breath, I wanna take with a smile
And no regrets, no hope of turning back that dial
Let the story I've written be something worth leaving behindWhen 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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on
When I'm goneTime don't last forever
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Time don't last forever
Oh-oh-ohWhen I'm Gone (when I'm gone)
Did my life go on, go on, go on?
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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on
When I'm gone
When I'm goneOh, my last breath I wanna take with a smileOh oh oh When I'm Gone...
Oh oh oh When I'm Gone...
And no regrets, no hope of turning back that dial
Let the story I've written be something worth leaving behindWhen 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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on when I'm gone
Oh, oh
When I'm GoneTell him 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 we all raised a glass as the credits rolled
My last breath, I wanna take with a smile
And no regrets, no hope of turning back that dial
Let the story I've written be something worth leaving behindWhen 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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on
When I'm goneTime don't last forever
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Time don't last forever
Oh-oh-ohWhen I'm Gone (when I'm gone)
Did my life go on, go on, go on?
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 a fire
That I lived every moment 'til that moment retired
So my life goes on, goes on
When I'm gone
