If I Die Young歌词

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow I ll shine down on my mother
She ll know I m safe with you when she stands under my colors oh and
Life ain t always what you think it ought to be no
Ain t even grey but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life well
I ve had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life well
I ve had just enough time
And I ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I ve never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There s a boy here in town says he ll love my forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life well
I ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts oh no I ll sell them for a dollar
There worth so much more after I m a goner
And maybe then you ll hear the words I been singing
Funny when your dead how people start listening
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears keep em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need them oh
The sharp knife of a short life well
I ve had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I ll wear my pearls编辑于2010/10/14更新
