Will You Miss Me

When death shall close these eye lids
 And this heart shall cease to beat
 And they lay me down to rest
 In some flowery bound retreat
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me when I'm gone?
 Perhaps you'll plant a flower
 On my poor unworthy grave
 Come and sit along beside me
 When the roses nod and wave
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me when I'm gone?
 One sweet thought my soul shall cherish
 When this fleeting life has flown
 This sweet thought will cheer when dying
 Will you miss me when I'm gone?
 When these lips shall never more
 Press a kiss upon thy brow
 But lie cold and still in death
 Will you love me then as now?
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me?
 (Miss me when I'm gone)
 Will you miss me when I'm gone?
