Well, it seems you thought it over
And you feel I`m not the one
And you think you might do better on your own.
You say lover`s vows only hold you down
So I guess I`m moving on,
But what`ll you think about me when I`m gone, said and done?
What will you think about me when I`m gone, said and done,
When old memories fall like footsteps.
Will you think it`s me coming home?
Well, I thought your eyes could see compromise,
But that`s one thing you`ve never done.
What`ll you think about me when I`m gone?
Will some other`s kiss taste sweeter
Or will my pictures haunt your room?
Will it make your nights pass easier
Or will you think you were a fool
When my pillow`s bare and you`re lying there,
Will a heartache linger on?
What`ll you think about me when I`m gone?
What`ll you think about me when I`m gone?
