You'll Miss Me When I'm Gone

I realised

What I did today

But I can’t describe

In any simple way

You’d be surprised

If you looked the other way

 

You make believe

You can do it all alone

In your fantasy

Your independence shone

You’ll only see

When your inspiration’s gone

 

You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’ll be standing in the aisles

You’ll be crying in your sleep

And painting on your smiles

You’ll be lining up the streets

And showering me with flowers

You’ll think what you could have done

You’ll miss me when I’m gone

 

 

You make believe

You can do it all alone

In your fantasy

Your independence shone

You’ll only see

When your inspiration’s gone

 

You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’ll be standing in the aisles

You’ll be crying in your sleep

And painting on your smiles

You’ll be lining up the streets

And showering me with flowers

You’ll think what you could have done

You’ll miss me when I’m gone

 

Separate your tempting fate

And leaving something that could motivate you to a higher state

That’ you’ll become

When all’s said and done

 

You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’ll be standing in the aisles

You’ll be crying in your sleep

And painting on your smiles

You’ll be lining up the streets

And showering me with flowers

You’ll think what you could have done

You’ll miss me if I’m gone

You’ll miss me if I’m gone

You’ll miss me if I’m gone
