I Will Be There When You Die Lyrics
Joe was born in New York City,
Son of Paul and Catherine
Always down and always out,
But his morals always seemed just fine
There will be bigotry and
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
You'll never have the time
As long as you keep a straight face
I will be there when you die
I was born in east Kentucky
Home of where the grass is dyed
Always down and always out
But my morals always seemed just fine
There will be bigotry and
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
You'll never have the time
As long as you keep a straight face
I will be there when you die
Son of Paul and Catherine
Always down and always out,
But his morals always seemed just fine
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
You'll never have the time
As long as you keep a straight face
I will be there when you die
Home of where the grass is dyed
Always down and always out
But my morals always seemed just fine
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
You'll never have the time
As long as you keep a straight face
I will be there when you die

This song is purely amazing. So tender and heartful, was it My Morning Jacket? or Godspeed? whoever, it is a masterpiece. tear
may i shed a tear?
seriously, one of the best songs to ride along in a friend's car and have the longest conversations possible.
i love this song.. it warms my heart whenever i hear it... or make me tear a little lol.. it's so beautiful
Describes a perfect expression of love without being cliche or contrived. It's songwriting like this why this band is one of the best.

jim james talking about this song and happiness and melancoly and paranoia
My friend died in January and this was a song that helped me get threw it. I live in Kentucky and i am a musician and my morning jacket is a big inspiration of mine. There words are genuine and are a lot more meaningful than a lot of these bands out here. No rediculous lyrics that we've heard in 1,000 "sad songs" , just a great talent for writing and interpreting.
definately. surely one of the most heartfelt, moving songs ive ever heard. beautiful.
^^^It's by My Morning Jacket. I originally got into them because this song was mislabeled on LimeWire as being by GY!BE.
im realy sorry about your friend dmb2135..
i just had a daughter in mid june and i would always sing this song to her even when she was still in me. i don't think ive listened to this song and not cried.
