If I live to see the sun, please go and tell someone, cause its not the last thing that you'll hear, its just the sound of my tears.
She said she loved him so, they had plans to meet in mexico. where the sun never seems to set, a place to forget. But one day they caught up with him, he knew one day his past would do him in, they said they'd hang him fore the dawn, so he wrote a letter to his love.
If I live to see the sun, please go and tell someone, cause its not the last thing that you'll hear, its just the sound of my tears.
She waited for two years, praying that he'd meet her here. but when she finally came on home, she found the letter that he wrote. She tried in vain to move on, but she never saw the dawn, just a modern day Juliet, who could not forget. And when they found her lying there, in the kitchen by the stairs, holding a note that they read, and all it said.
If I live to see the sun, please go and tell someone, cause its not the last thing that you'll hear, its just the sound of my tears.
If I Live to See the Sun,
If I Live to See the Sun,
If I Live to See the Sun.
