When I'm Gone

[Verse 1]

When I'm gone

I hope that everything in your world is right

When you’re lost

I pray that everything that I taught you

Can turn you right back around

When you need me

I will always be by your side

Oh baby, oh baby

Just know everything is gonna be alright

[Chorus]

When I get home

I'm gonna hold you just a little bit closer

Until I'm gone

I’m gonna love you just a little bit longer

[Verse 2]

Been around the world and back

Daddy's a country boy just trying to make it in the city

And I don't know when I'm coming back

I'd never seen you underneath the sky, looking so pretty

'Til I pack up my Cadillac

Me and the boys got some work, it's about to get busy

Turn up the radio

Step on the gas now, baby, gotta go, gotta go, yeah

[Chorus]

But when I get home

I'm gonna hold you just a little bit closer

Until I’m gone, yeah

I’m gonna love you just a little bit longer, yeah

Just a little bit longer, yeah

I'm gonna love you just a little bit longer

I’m gonna be your, oh, oh, man

[Bridge]

When I get home

I gotta hold you just a little bit closer

Until I'm gone

I'm gonna love you just a little bit longer, yeah

[Outro]

When I get home (When I'm home)

I wanna hold you just a little bit closer, yeah

Until I’m home (When I'm home)

I'm gonna love you just a little bit longer, yeah

(I can't wait to hold you, love you)

When I get home (When I get home, oh yeah)

I'm gonna hold you just a little bit closer (Oh baby, baby)

Until I'm home (Oh yeah, yeah, baby)

I wanna love you just a little bit longer, yeah

(I wanna love you just a little bit longer)
