Alina Eremia - If I Die Young lyrics
rate meIf 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
Lord make me rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you
when she stands under my colors
Oh and life aint always what you think it oughta be no
She ain't even gray and she buries her baby
Oh the sharp knife of a short like
Well I've had just enough time
[Chorus]
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 to 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 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
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 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll here the words I've been singin'
Funny when your dead how people start listening
[Chorus]
Oh oh the ballad of a dove
go with peace and love
Gather up your tears
keep them in your pocket
Save them for a time
when you're really gonna need them
Oh 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
