When I Go - Brett Dennen

Hold this heart when I go

Sing my song when I go

Sing it loud when I go

Sing it proud when I go

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly

But I know they’d all be yearning to fly

When my, when my, when my soul

Takes leave of this world

When I leave this flesh and these bones

Oh I swear to you that you won’t have to go alone

Hold this heart when I go

Sing my song when I go

Sing it loud when I go

Sing it proud when I go

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly

But i know they’d all be yearning to fly

The first time my heart collided with yours

I know I felt the ocean tickle the Earth’s sandy shores

But changes come and we all know that we can’t, we can’t stop them

But I hold these memories and I will never drop them

And I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you

Oh my care will cover you just like the moon can do

I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you

Oh my care will cover you just like the moon can do

Hold this heart when I go

Sing my song when I go

Sing it loud when I go

Sing it proud when I go

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and

Some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly

But i know they’d all be yearning to fly

Oh the thought of death has yet to make me afraid

'cause I will march right off this world into the next like its a grand parade

But if you feel lonely just like you want to run and hide

Then I’ll wrap my wings around you and give you strength and I won’t leave your

side

And I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you

Oh, my care will cover you just like the moon’ll do

I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you

You know I’d love to get to heaven

You know I’d love to see the view

But first I think I’ll stay and watch over you

Oh, I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you
