I won't wake up to the sound of your feet
Walkin' down the hall like a soft heartbeat
I won't wake up
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone

I won't look back on a past so long
I won't look back on the things gone wrong
I won't look back
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone

I won't have words, I've said all that there is to say
I won't have words, 'cause I know you'll just throw them away
I won't have words
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone

By the time that I do you'll be gone
By the time that I do you'll be gone
