When I Die - Motherlode

When I die I hope to be

A better man than you thought I’d be

It’s been hard to make you see

What kind of man I’m tryin' to be

All I ask for you to try

To understand what it means to me

It’s not hard to understand why you

Get discouraged all the time

I keep tryin' not to worry, but I

Can’t help feelin' lost in you

But I lo--o--o--o--ove you

Love you

And I need you

Time goes by and you’ll find

That we’ll achieve a love sublime

When I die I hope to be

A better man than you thought I’d be

It’s not hard to understand why you

Get discouraged all the time

I keep tryin' not to worry, but I

Can’t help feelin' lost in you

'Cause I love you and I want you

'Cause I got to, got to have you

'Cause I, 'cause I need you

When I die I hope to be

A better man than you thought I’d be

Be (the kind of man that you thought I’d)
