When I’m Gone Lyrics

Thinking, I’ve been thinking
About leaving this old town behind
I’ll beg and borrow, to leave tomorrow
Find all my sorrow, and take it back

[Chorus]
Come on, you can sleep when I’m gone
I was lying when I said there’s plenty of time
Don’t need your alibi baby
Cause I’m always smiling
Tryina see the crime
Lying, I’ve been lying
I’ve been lying around for thoughts in this town too long
Too long to tell, if I’ve been lying
Oh just another morning, the stars what I’ve become

[Chorus]
Come on, you can sleep when I’m gone
I was lying when I said there’s plenty of time
Don’t need your alibi baby
Cause I’m always smiling
Tryina see the crime
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Come on, you can sleep when I’m gone
I was lying when I said there’s plenty of time
Don’t need your alibi baby
Cause I’m always smiling
Tryina see the crime
I’m always smiling
Tryina see the crime

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
