Thank Me When I’m Gone
January 21, 2009
I never asked you for so much
I never asked you for anything at all
I never asked you for your touch
I never asked you to give me your all
Is it so hard to understand, is it so hard to take it in
What is just so difficult
So complicated
What’s so hard to get about it when I say
Thank me when I’m gone
Thank me when I’m no longer by your side
There’s still so much I can give to you right now
Always and forever
Why are you thanking me so soon when I’m still beside you?
I never asked you for anything
I never asked you to answer my every call
I never asked you for something
I never asked you to catch me when I fall
Is it so hard to comprehend, is it so hard to take it in
What is the problem with all that
So exaggerated
What is so hard to get about it when I say
Thank me when I’m gone
Thank me when I’m no longer able to give
There’s still so much more that I could ever offer
Happy ever after
Thank me when the time comes that I am no longer with you
