Luke Spiller - When I Die Will I Miss Living

 Luke Spiller - When I Die Will I Miss Living

When I die will I miss living
Will my body lie there jealous 
While flowers bloom above my bones 
And spring begins to sing
When I die will I miss dancing
Will my soul look on with envy 
While June recites its shortest night 
And summers in full swing
All those things
Every day brings 
That pass us by headlong
When I die will I miss living when I’m gone

When I die will I miss trouble
Or those little things called problems 
That I chewed on far too long but time 
Made sure of their demise 
When I die will I miss the mundane 
Will I long for one more Sunday
Or the morning rush to catch the bus 
I did a thousand times
Working nights 
Red traffic lights 
Those weeks that felt so long 
When I die will I miss living when I’m gone 

When I’m gone
When I’m gone 
When I’m gone 

When I die one thing’s for certain 
I’ll be with you while you’re walking 
When the golden leaves of autumn trees
Go dancing ‘round your feet
When I die I won’t stop giving 
You the songs while you keep living
When the wind blows slow
You’ll smile and know 
I never left your side
When it’s time 
We don’t decide 
But as sure as daylight dawns 
When I die I’ll always love you when I’m gone 

When I’m gone
When I’m gone
