when i'm gone

Albert Hammond

When I'm gone
will you take good care of everything?
Will you keep wearing your wedding ring? When I'm gone.
And when I'm gone
will you take out all the photographs

Maybe spend a moment in the past? When I'm gone.
Will you miss me in the night?
Will your arms reach out to hold me tight

And keep me in your dreams
in your heart
in your life?
Sometimes I'll wanna run to you like lovers do

When love is new and just for a moment be close to you

Pretending I'm still holding you.
And even when I'm far away the dreams will stay.
And someday
after we've both chased our fantasies

Love will bring you back to me.
When I'm gone
I'll be thinking about you constantly

'Cause you're locked inside my memory from now on.
And I know that we said we needed time apart

But your love keeps pulling at my heart
pulling strong.
Will you miss me in the night?
Will your arms reach out to hold me tight

And keep me in your dreams
in your heart
in your life?
Sometimes I'll wanna run to you like lovers do . . .
Sometimes I'll wanna run to you like lovers do . . .
Sometimes I'll wanna run to you like lovers do .
