Name: When I'm Gone
Duration: P00H02M49S
Description: The light hasn’t quite reached the bark of the trees in the yard. But I fear the time has come for me to depart. Though we’ve only just grown close again, the time I’ve spent with you will always mean more to me than any ray of sunlight coming through the shades. And you do recall how much I enjoy those gentle beams, don’t you. Stay safe, sleep well my love.

about

The light hasn’t quite reached the bark of the trees in the yard. But I fear the time has come for me to depart. Though we’ve only just grown close again, the time I’ve spent with you will always mean more to me than any ray of sunlight coming through the shades. And you do recall how much I enjoy those gentle beams, don’t you. Stay safe, sleep well my love.

lyrics

Sleep gently don’t worry
I will be here for you
And in the morning
The birds will sing
 When I’m gone
When I’m gone
When I’m gone
When I’m gone

I won’t be long darling
Sing till I’m home
The mornings are hardest
When spent alone

And you’re gone
You’re gone
You’re gone
You’re gone

Somedays remind me of
Times when I’m near you
I would recall all the time
I could hear
 Your song
Your song
Your song
Your song
