Remo Fernandes - And When I'm Gone Lyrics

Lyrics And When I'm Gone - Remo Fernandes



And when I'm gone
Please don't build me statues of marble
And when I'm gone
Please don't let my message be garbled
Oh when I'm gone
Please don't make them stand in line
Treat them as gods in your shrine
Your reason to be so free
And when I'm gone
Please don't make me out to be a hero
And when I'm gone
Remember we're nothing but zero
Without the values
Which we place before us
Which they hold up for us
In their smiles
In their hearts and souls
In their lives and goals
Forward, ever forward
Go forth into the world
Spread the laughter
Ever after
And watch happiness unfurl
Just a drop in the ocean
May not be much of a treat
But without it
Never doubt it
The ocean would not be complete
And when I'm gone
Please don't make them wait for admission
While you sit
In comfort in expensive air condition
I've seen too many
Congregations falter and flounder
Far away from the original founder
Don't let that happen to you
You know where every rupee's due
Keep almost nothing for you
Forward, ever forward
Go forth into the world
Spread the laughter
Ever after
And watch happiness unfurl
Remember the tiny
Drop of water
Which fills the ocean from above
The world is hungry
Not for bread
The world is starving
Starving for love
The world is starving for love
Go spread your love
