Hold this heart when I go
sing my song when I go
sing it loud when I go
sing it proud when I go
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly
but I know they’d all be yearning to fly
when my, when my, when my soul
takes leave of this world
when I leave this flesh and these bones
oh I swear to you that you wont have to go alone

Hold this heart when I go
sing my song when I go
sing it loud when I go
sing it proud when I go
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly
but i know they’d all be yearning to fly
the first time my heart collided with yours
I know I felt the ocean tickle the Earth’s sandy shores
but changes come and we all know that we can’t, we can’t stop them
but I hold these memories and I will never drop them
and I’ll watch over you

I’ll watch over you
oh my care will cover you just like the moon can do
I’ll watch over you
I’ll watch over you
oh my care will cover you just like the moon can do

Hold this heart when I go
sing my song when I go
sing it loud when I go
sing it proud when I go
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly and
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly
but i know they’d all be yearning to fly
oh the thought of death has yet to make me afraid
’cause I will march right off this world into the next like its a grand parade
but if you feel lonely just like you want to run and hide
then I’ll wrap my wings around you and give you strength and I wont leave your side
and I’ll watch over you
I’ll watch over you
oh, my care will cover you just like the moon’ll do
I’ll watch over you
I’ll watch over you
you know I’d love to get to heaven
you know I’d love to see the view
but first I think I’ll stay and watch over you
oh, I’ll watch over you
I’ll watch over you
