If I ever leave this world alive
I`ll thank for the things you did in my life
If I ever leave this world alive
I`ll come back and sit beside your feet tonight
Where ever I`m you`ll always be
More than just a memory
If I ever leave this world alive
If I ever leave this world alive
I`ll take on all the sadness
That I left behind
If I ever leave this world alive
The madness that you feel will soon subside
So in a word don`t shed a tear
I`ll be here when it all gets weird
If I ever leave this world alive
So when in doubt just call my name
Just before you go insane
If I ever leave this world alive
Hey I may never leave this world alive
But if I ever leave this world alive
She says I`m okay; I`m all right,
Though you have gone from my life
You said that it would
Now everything should be alright
She says I`m okay; I`m all right,
Though you have gone from my life
You said that it would
Now everything should be alright
Yeah should be alright
