Something To Remember Me By Lyrics

Something To Remember Me By lyrics

I'll carve a song out of notes of stone

My tune-cut will last generations long

And it will be one to remember me by

When I am dead and gone



Empires may fall, and the maps might change

The oceans may boil in a fit of rage

But folks will be whistling a tune of mine

When I am dead and gone



Let me plant my pillars in the sand

I won't be here when they crumble out of the sky

Trunkless legs, that sneer of cold command

Don't you need something to remember me by

Oh, you needing something to remember me by



Darkness creeps quickly and strikes too hard

These songs tumble from me with their swords drawn fast

And fueled by love, round the world they'll fly

When I am dead and gone



Let me build my castles in the sand

I won't be here when they crumble into the tide

Flag and fortress, molded by my hands

Don't you need something to remember me by

Oh, you needing something to remember me by



I'll carve a song out of notes of stone

My tune-cut will last generations long

And it will be one to remember me by

When I am dead and gone
