After You're Gone

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There'll be laughter even after you're gone.

I'll find reasons to face that empty dawn.

'Cause I've memorised each line in your face,

And not even death can ever erase the story they tell to me.

I'll miss you.

Oh, how I'll miss you.

I'll dream of you,

And I'll cry a million tears.

But the sorrow will pass.

And the one thing that will last,

Is the love that you've given to me.

There'll be laughter even after you're gone.

I'll find reasons and I'll face that empty dawn.

'Cause I've memorised each line in your face,

And not even death could ever erase the story they tell to me.
