[Verse] If I’m to die before I reach you Please know I’m meant to love you till I did If I’m to slip beneath a train meant to take me Know that I believe that it was worth it Tell my friends goodbye Tell my almost ex-wife That I loved her and left her too soon
[Chorus] Oh I hope to be holding you soon Who knows what happens if I leave my room Oh I’m scared that you’ll know what to do... If I’m to die before you
[Verse] If I’m to die before I hold you Know my arms were the worst off for it If I’m set upon dried From my room as I write You won't be my last Thought before I quit Give my family love I would watch from above But I fear there is nothing but sleep
[Chorus - Variation] Oh I hope to be seeing you soon Don’t know what's out there More fear I assume Oh I’m scared that you’ll know what to do... If I’m to die before you
[Verse] And if i’m to die before we spend a soft day Know my final thoughts will be of regret If I'm to drown in the deep sea that parts us I once lived and loved, don’t forget Give my paintings to Alice Tell all my good friends That I didn’t dare earn their respect
[Chorus] Oh I hope to be seeing you soon I don’t know what happens if I leave my room Oh I’m scared that you’ll know what to do
If I'm to die before you, if I'm to die before you
