If I Die Before You

If I die before you
Should I go first
Let me be clear about my expectations
I want you to miss me
I want you to be lonely for the rest of your life
“Cause I’m your favourite wife

There’ll be no ladies sharing your bed
I want you to be cold and broken hearted
‘Cause I’m dead
I want you to miss me
I want you to pine
And wish that you could kiss me just one more time

If I die before you…mmm
If I die before you…mmm

Just a word of warning my dearest love
In the circumstance of my demise
It might seem quite natural to find another one
But that’s not my plan if I die
But I’ve been listening to you…

If you die before me
I’ll do as you wish
I’ll find myself a handsome younger model to kiss
I’ll try to forget you when you’re dead and gone
‘Cause you have always said to me that you wish I would move on
But let me just be clear now…

If I die before you
I want the world to know that you’re a broken man
I want you to wallow
I want you to cry and howl at the moon
I want you to weep and moan and lament that I went too soon

If I die before you…mm
If I die before you…mm
