When It's My Time To Go

When it's my time to go
Could you hold me till I'm gone
When it's my time to go
Could you forget what I've done wrong
When it's my time to go
And my eyes forever close
Don't you cry for me
I don't need the sympathy
But when the time is here
And I'm down to my last breath
I'll have a few more words
Let me get this off my chest
Please just leave me
Now leave me all alone
You couldn't help when I struggled
Or even when I had no home
I Don't need your Love right now
When it's my time to go
Now you decide to shed some tears
But my eyes have already closed.
