Alex Goot - If I Die Young Lyrics

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's standing in 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'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 woman
But it sure felt nice when she was holding my hand
There's a girl here in town, says she'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

(Ohh)

So let's put on our best boys, and they'll wear their pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing
Funny when you're dead, how people start listening

(Yeah)

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

Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em

Oh, the sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

So let's put on our best boys, and they'll wear their pearls
