Look into the yard All the flowers find it hard to climb See, the weeds have won Take the water and the sun Then it finds me in the clear Now you can see The worst of days has got the best of me
[Chorus] So lay me down to sleep And pray my soul to keep me Moving on When I'm gone
You take me in With the color of my skin turned gray Doctor, will you let us know Should we keep or let him go today We'll bring him home for surgery With a tweezer and a match Kill tick and flea
[Chorus]
When all is said and done I never will forget you when I'm gone Carry on
Whisper over me I can rest in peace of mind My eyes are wide But still dark inside this time I have it all In front of me Such a simple world I could never see But you gave it all For just one day I found a reason to live And pass away
[Chorus]
When all is said and done I never will forget you when I'm gone And you carry on When I'm gone And you're moving on
