Lyrics When I'm Gone - Joey + Rory
A
bright
sunrise
will
contradict
the
heavy
fault
that
weighs
you
down
In
spite
of
all
the
funeral
songs
The
birds
will
make
their
joyful
sounds
You
wonder
why
the
earth
still
moves
You
wonder
how
you'll
carry
on
But
you'll
be
okay
on
that
first
day
when
I'm
gone
Dusk
will
come
with
fireflies
and
whippoorwill
and
crickets
call
And
every
star
will
take
its
place
And
silvery
gown
and
purple
shawl
You'll
lie
down
in
our
big
bed
Dread
the
dark
and
dread
the
dawn
But
you'll
be
alright
on
that
first
night
when
I'm
gone
You
will
reach
for
me
in
vain
You'll
be
whispering
my
name
As
if
sorrow
were
your
friend
And
this
world
so
alien
But
life
will
call
with
daffodils
And
morning
glorious
blue
skies
You'll
think
of
me
some
memory
And
softly
smile
to
your
surprise
And
even
though
you
love
me
still
You
will
know
where
you
belong
Just
give
it
time
we'll
both
be
fine
When
I'm
gone
