As I lay awake at night
Frequently I will call-out her name
And I hold my pillow tight
Pretending to ignore all this pain

And I sometimes wonder
As I close my eyes to sleep
Will she remember me
When I’m lying six feet deep

(Chorus)
Will she remember me
When this life is gone?
Will she think of me
And all of my songs?

I thought I could make it
But I’m probably wrong
But hey,
Life goes on, life goes on…

As each passing day goes by
and my death draws near
It’s not the struggle that hurts
My heart cries the tears

But not of fear
Just wasted years

And I sometimes wonder
As I close my eyes to sleep
Will she remember me
When I’m lying six feet deep

Will she remember me
When this life is gone?
Will she think of me
And all of my songs?

I thought I could make it
But I’m probably wrong
But hey,
Life goes on, life goes on…

Girl, you gave me strength
Brought beauty back into my life
And you made me smile
So it’s OK and it’s alright

I’m ready to go now
Right into that light

Will she remember me
When this life is gone?
Will she think of me
And all of my songs?

I thought I could make it
But I’m probably wrong
But hey,
Life goes on, life goes on…
