If I Die Young Lyrics - Glee Cast

If I die young, bury me in satin 

Lay me down on a bed of roses 

Sink me in the river, at dawn 

Send me away with the words of a love song uh oh uh oh 

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother 

She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors 

Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no 

Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby 

The sharp knife of a short life 

Well, I've had just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin 

Lay me down on a bed of roses 

Sink me in the river, at dawn 

Send me away with the words of a love song 

The sharp knife of a short life 

Well, I've had just enough time 

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom 

I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger 

I've never known the loving of a woman 

But it sure felt nice when she was holding my hand 

There's a girl here in town, says she'll love me forever 

Who would have thought forever could be severed by 

The sharp knife of a short life 

Well, I've had just enough time 

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar 

They're worth so much more after I'm a goner

And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing 

Funny, when you're dead how people start listenin' 

If I die young, bury me in satin 

Lay me down on a bed of roses 

Sink me in the river, at dawn 

Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, bury me in satin 

Lay me down on a bed of roses 

Sink me in the river, at dawn 

Send me away with the words of a love song 

The sharp knife of a short life 

Well, I've had just enough time 

If I die young, bury me in satin 

Lay me down...
