If I ever leave this world alive,
I'll thank ya' for things you did in my life.
If I ever leave this world alive,
I'll come back down and sit beside your feet tonight.
Wherever I am, you'll always be.
More than just a memory.
If I ever leave this world alive.

If I ever leave this world alive,
I'll take on all the sadness, that I left behind.
If I ever leave this world alive,
The madness that you feel will soon subside.
So in a word, don't shed a tear.
I'll be here when it all gets weird.
If I ever leave this world alive.

If I ever leave this world
Hey, I may never leave this world
But if I ever leave this world alive she says

I'm okay, I'm alright
Though you have gone from my life
You said that it would,
Now everything should,
Be alright
She says, I'm okay! I'm alright!
Though you have gone from my life.
You said that it would,
Now everything should,
Be alright.
Yeah, should be alright.
