And When I Die

Laura Nyro

When I die (when I die)
When I'm (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

And when I die (and when I die)
And I'm (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

I'm not scared of dying and I don't really fear
If it's peace you find in dying, well, then let the time be near
If it's peace you find in dying, when dying time is here
Just you bundle up my coffin cause I hear it's cold way down there

When I die (when I die)
When I'm (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

My troubles here are many, deep as a well
Got me wonderin' about heaven, each day I live in hell
If you worry about heaven, if you're wonderin' 'bout hell
You won't only know by living, only dying will tell

And when I die (and when I die)
When I'm dead (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

Just give me my freedom for as long as I be
All I ask of my living is to have no chains on me
All I ask of my living is to have no chains on me
All I ask of dying is to go naturally

And when I die (and when I die)
When I'm dead (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

And when I die (and when I die)
When I'm dead (dead and gone)
There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

There'll be one child born
And a whole wide world to carry on

There'll be one child born when I die
