If I d ie before I get it do ne, will you decide?
Ta ke my w ords and turn them int o signs th at will survive
Because a l ong t ime ago I k new not to deprive
It's s afe out t here and now you're eve rywh ere, just like the skies
Yo u are l ove, you are the lov e supr eme, you are the rise
And when you h ear t his, you know it's you r ja m, it's your goodbye
Li ke I said, you know I'm a lmost dead, you know I'm almost gone
And when the d rummer drums, he's gonna p lay my song to carry me along
Li ke I said, you know I'm a lmost dead, you know I'm almost gone
And when the b oatman comes to ferry m e away to where we all belong
We all c rossed when we were fee ling lo st, it's just the tide
Kat ari c ried the day her lov er di ed, she recognized
Because he g ave h er a life of rea l lo ve, it's no surprise
The n ights are l ong but the yea rs are sh ort when you're alive
Wa y back w hen would never be aga in, it was a time
It's gonna c atch y ou, so glad I met yo u, to walk the line
Li ke I said, you know I'm a lmost dead, you know I'm almost gone
And when the d rummer drums he's gonna p lay my song to carry me along
Li ke I said, you know I'm a lmost dead, you know I'm almost gone
And when the b oatman comes to ferry m e away to where we all belong
Come get me!
Hey! Hey!

And when the d rummer drums he's gonna p lay my song to carry me along
Li ke I said, you know I'm a lmost dead, you know I'm almost gone
And when the b oatman comes to ferry m e away to where we all belong

So when it's time to die
Even the reaper cries

So when it's time to leave
Another son will rise
I said y eah! Yeah, y eah! Yeah, yeahhhh!
I said y eah! Yeah, y eah! Yeah, yeahhhh!
