When I'm gonDe
Will you take good care of eBmverything?

Will you take out all the phBmotographs
Maybe spend a moment in the Gpast?

Will you F#mmiss me in the nighBmt?
Will your aEmrms reach out to hoAld me tiGght
And kF#meep me in your dreaBmms
In your heaGrt, in your lifAe?

Sometimes I'll wanna Drun to you like Bmlovers do
When Glove is new and F#mjust for a moment be Gclose to you
