If I Die Young - Kurt/Sam Tsui

作词：Kimberly Perry

作曲：Kimberly Perry

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

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Lord make me a rainbow

I'll shine down on my mother

She'll know I'm safe with you

And she stands under my colors

Oh and life ain't always

What you think it ought to be

No ain't even gray 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 have 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 lovin' of man

But it sure felt nice

When I held you in the sun

And you you took my hand

Said you'll love me forever

Who would have thought forever

Could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life well

I've had just enough time

A penny for my thoughts

Oh no I'll sell them for a dollar

They're worth so much more after I'm a goner

And maybe then you'll

Hear the words I been singin

Funny when you're dead how people start listenin

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 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 'em oh

The sharp knife of a short life
