If I Die Young (Glee Cast Version)

Текст песни Glee Cast - If I Die Young (Glee Cast Version)

[SANTANA]
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-ho

Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you
When she stands under my colors
Oh well, life ain't always
What you'd think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey 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 lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice
When he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town
Says he'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
Ooh yeah, ooh woah

So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no, I'll sell them 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
Oh, 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)
The ballad of a dove (Oh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears
Keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time
When you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life
Well I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
