When I'm gone,
When I'm gone,
Take me out into my cornfields,
Set me deep,
Lay me low
When I've crossed over.
And these fields will be
(#9) (#5)
My legacy
When I'm gone.
MM...
When I'm gone,
Come what may,
When I'm with my Lord in Heaven,
I'll look down
At this place
When I've crossed over.
Let it stay somehow
#9
Like it is right now
When I'm gone.
Oh, when I was born,
I had tomorrows stretched before me,
But the yesterdays piled up
From that day on.
When I'm gone,
When I'm gone,
I will see the clouds below me,
And my child
And his child
When I've crossed over.
Let them feel the pride
(#9) (#5)
That I've kept inside.
When I'm gone.
Oh, when I was born,
I had tomorrows stretched before me,
But the yesterdays piled up
From that day on.
When I'm gone,
When I'm gone,
I'll sing Glory, Hallelujah!
For my work
Will be done
When I've crossed over.
And I know you'll know
That I loved you so
When I'm gone.
And this love will be
(#9) (#5)
All that's left of me,
When I'm gone.
