"Loretta's Song" lyrics

When I'm gone, don't cry for me
When I'm gone, don't cry for me
I've waited so long, now I'm free
So when I'm gone, don't cry for me
Lay no roses at my feet
Lay no roses at my feet
'Cause where I'm going, He waits for me
So lay no roses at my feet

'Cause life's too long for to keep regrets
And love's too strong to lay down for death
I know you're hurting, but it's not the end
So hold on, darlin', I will see you again

Don't you sing those old sad songs
Don't you sing those old sad songs
They're keeping you from movin' on
So don't you sing those old sad songs

Just keep heaven on your mind
Just keep heaven on your mind
Do your dancin' and drink your wine
But just keep heaven on your mind

'Cause life's too long for to keep regrets
And love's too strong to lay down for dead
I know you're hurting, but it's not the end
So hold on, darlin', I will see you again

'Cause I've been waiting from that sweet first breath
For to lay me down with my love and rest
I know you're hurting, but it's not the end
So hold on, darlin', I will see you again
Hold on, darlin', I will see you again
Hold on, darlin', I will see you again
