Lyrics
When I'm Gone
(Verse 1)
I wonder if you'll ever miss me when I'm gone
And will you throw away my picture and my song
Giving's been the bigger part of give and take
Done all that I can, I leave it up to fate
I wonder if you'll ever miss me when I'm gone
(verse 2)
I open up the dirty window as you go
I see the candle on the sill is getting' low
Melody and harmony aren't sounding right
Letting go is all that I can do tonight
I wonder if you'll ever miss me when I'm gone
(Bridge)
I keep thinking about you now
Even though I'm ready... ready to move on
I know this isn't all you got
You could push it harder, you could give me more...
(verse 3)
I've got a closet full of weathered, stone-washed dreams
I know that I've been on the harder side to please
Can't see through the fog out of the morning train
I'll keep my head together for another day
I wonder if you'll ever miss me, when I gone
