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', worth leavin' behind

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

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

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

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

When I'm gone

My last breath, I wanna take with a smile

When I'm gone, when I'm gone
