When I Am Gone

Whenever I close my eyes, never to see the morning light
ever again, when all things come to an end. 
Whenever I die, will anyone miss me, when I am gone,
before then will my heart ever find true and everlasting love.
would anyone care if they ever see me smile or cry again.
Whenever I close my eyes, wondering will your love save me 
from the pain I have in my heart, from the pain that fills my soul, '
when all things come to an end, who will miss me when I am gone.
