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 What'll you think about me when I'm gone said and done When old mem'ries 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 pa** 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
