On the Day I Die Lyrics by Tom Gregory

Things I Can’t Say Out Loud

2021

[Verse 1]
Questions that nobody knows
Can somebody give the answer?
I'm makin' this up as I go
Oh, when do I run out of chances?

[Pre-Chorus]
Life is a journey, life is a road
When I look back, did I lose my soul?
Was I a sinner? Did I come close?
Will I be faced by the Holy Ghost?
Searchin' for somethin' to say
Searchin' for somethin' to say

[Chorus]
When I'm old and grey and my heartbeat fades
Will I laugh, will I cry on the day I die?
Drinkin' at my wake, what will my friends say?
Will they laugh, will they cry on the day I, on the day I die?

[Verse 2]
I don't know who to believe
'Cause everyonе's telling me differеnt
Abusing the heart on my sleeve
I'm hopin' it don't lose the rhythm

[Pre-Chorus]
Life is a journey, life is a road
When I look back, did I lose my soul?
Was I a sinner? Did I come close?
Will I be faced by the Holy Ghost?
Searchin' for somethin' to say
Searchin' for somethin' to say

[Chorus]
When I'm old and grey and my heartbeat fades
Will I laugh, will I cry on the day I die?
Drinkin' at my wake, what will my friends say?
Will they laugh, will they cry on the day I die?
When I'm old and grey and my heartbeat fades
Will I laugh, will I cry on the day I die?
Drinkin' at my wake, what will my friends say?
Will they laugh, will they cry on the day I, on the day I die?
