When I'M Gone
Smile at me with those beautiful lips,
Talk to me I insist when I am close,
But be careful of words you speak
That may stretch us apart and ruin
The splendor we see in being us;
Like me and ne’er let me weep,
And every day I plead make my day
And I swear I’ll make yours;
Let no fury or disgust swab our smiles,
But with harmony let’s our bond be adorned
For ephemeral our life is which,
I beseech, we shall spend through delight;
‘Cause when I’m gone and no more you see me,
Unheard your words shall only fade away,
Unfelt your warmth shall just cool away
And chained-up your rueful soul shall remain.
So hide not but bare your heart out,
Show that truly you care for me,
That you respect and adore me
In the person I am, and talk me
Into believing every word you say,
‘Cause when I’m gone and you’d miss me,
Beyond your reach I’d have gone and
Unheard your words shall only fade away,
Unfelt your warmth shall just cool away,
And chained-up your rueful soul shall remain.
So LOVE me when you can!!!
