When My Days Are Done - Green River Ordinance

Ain’t afraid to die

'Cuz I have truly lived

Held the hand of a blushing bride

Grown old with my best friend

Ain’t afraid to die

With what these eyes have seen

Beauty of my son’s first steps

Little girls smiling back at me

When my time comes

When all my days are done

Friend, don’t you cry for me

Oh my body might be broken in the ground

Oh, my soul, it will be free

My soul, it will be free

Spent too long trying to do it on my own

Had to be lead through the valley

To find my way back home

It was then that I realized all that I have missed

My eyes have been opened wide

To what real love is

When my time comes

When all my days are done

Friend, don’t you cry for me

Yeah my body might be broken in the ground

Yeah my soul, it will be free

My soul, it will be free

All the fame and all the gold

You can’t take 'em to the grave

In the end, all it is are zeroes in the bank

The love we got, the love we made

I would say, that I’m the richest

Man, so don’t you cry

Don’t you cry…

When my time comes

When all my days are done

Friend, don’t you cry for me

Oh my body might be broken in the ground

Though my body might be broken in the ground

Oh my soul, it will be free

My soul, it will be free
