I wrote you this song to be with you when I'm gone Maybe in time you can sing along What a lovely old sky 60 miles high That keeps us here in the world we know When I close my eyes and all my years of time are over I'll be far away singing you this song Hold on, oh, my darlin' you'll be fine You'll have white hair, and tired bones And peace of mind Tell me something you love about life or growing up Something to change the way we look at things Have a burst of energy like we were when we were teens Get a little high on some make believe When I close my eyes and All my years of time are over I'll be far away singing you this song Hold on, oh, my darlin' you'll be fine You'll have white hair, and tired bones And peace of mind When we meet again and our new life begins I believe somewhere in the universe we'll fly Hold on
