There's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone
And I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
And you won't find me singing on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
And I won't feel the flowing of the time when I'm gone
And all the pleasures of love will not be mine when I'm gone
My pen won't pour out a lyric line when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
And I won't breathe the bracing air when I'm gone
I can't even worry 'bout my cares when I'm gone
I won't be asked to do my share when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
And I won't be running from the rain when I'm gone
I won't suffer from the pain when I'm gone
And I can't say who's to blame when I'm gone
So I guess I'll do it while I'm here
And I won't see the golden of the sun when I'm gone
Nor the evenings and the mornings that must be one when I'm gone
And I can't be singing louder than the guns when I'm gone
So I guess I'll do it while I'm here
And all my days won't be dances of delight when I'm gone
And the sands will be shifting from my sight when I'm gone
I can't add my name into the fight while I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
And I won't be laughing at the lies when I'm gone
And I can't question how or when or why when I'm gone
And I, I can't live proud enough to die when I'm gone
So I guess I'll do it while I'm here
Yeah, there's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone
And I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone
You won't find me singing on this song when I'm gone
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
