Lyrics

Every night before I go to sleep
After thanking God for you and me
I pray to him my soul to keep
Just in case I don't make it through
I’ll never know when know when it's my time
Till I’m at the finish line
There won't be much I leave much behind
And that's fine as long as you...

Remember me
When I've moved beyond this world
Your thoughts can be
My mark upon this Earth
You won't find me in the history books
I've got much higher hopes
Remember me
As the one who loved you most

I haven't ushered in world peace
I'll probably never cure disease
All I've done is try to be
The one you build your world around
'Cause. girl, I know that loving you
Is what the good Lord put me here to do
And if I needed to for you
I would lay my own life down

(Chorus)

If I can keep you warm and safe, put a smile on your face
Walk through the years hand in hand
Then when I'm dead and gone write it on my stone
Here lies a happy man

(Chorus)
