Life Would Keep Going On? (song version of If You Were Gone)

Someday if you ever chose to go,
This is what I would want you to know:
My life would keep going on.
I would allow you to go free,
To be who and where you’d want to be,
Without annoying you or clinging on.

No, I wouldn’t drag myself around,
Mumbling around, staring at the ground.
I’d still drive to work each day.
I’d watch too much television,
Or bury myself in religion,
Because my zest for life would go away.

I’m not saying that I wouldn’t miss you,
Because deep inside I would.
I wouldn’t ever try to replace you--
I wouldn’t even If I could.

My favorite foods would all taste bland, 
And I’d cease to play my baby grand.
I’d stop writing songs and poetry.
My house wouldn’t feel like a home;
All it’s pastels would seem monochrome;
And my pictures would seem a mockery
I’m not saying that I wouldn’t miss you,
Because deep inside I would.
I wouldn’t ever try to replace you--
I wouldn’t even If I could.

If you were ever taken from me,
Freed from the bonds of mortality,
I wouldn’t be left behind.
I’d rather be with you up there,
Than without you in any anywhere.
Your loss would always dominate my mind
