If I die before I get it done Will you decide? Take my words and turn them Into signs they will survive Because a long time ago I knew not to deprive It’s safe out there and now you’re everywhere Just like the skies You are love you are the love supreme You are the rise And when you hear this You’ll know it’s your jam It’s your goodbye
Like I said You know I’m almost dead You know I’m almost gone And when the drummer drums He’s going to play my song To carry me along
Like I said You know I’m almost dead You know I’m almost gone And when the boatman comes To ferry me away To where we all belong
We all crossed when we were feeling lost It’s just the tide Katari cried the day her lover died She recognized Because he gave her A life of real love It’s no surprise The nights are long But the years are short When you’re alive Way back when would never be again It was a time It’s gonna catch you So glad I met you To walk the line
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know i'm almost gone When the drummer drumms He's gonna play my song To carry me along
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone When the boatman comes to ferry me away To were we all belong
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone When the drummer drumms He's gonna play my song To carry me along
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone When the boatman comes to ferry me away To were we all belong
Let me live So when it’s time to die Even the reaper cries Let me die So when it’s time to live Another son will rise
Yeah, yeah
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone When the drummer drumms He's gonna play my song To carry me along
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone When the boatman comes to ferry me away To were we all belong
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone
Like I said You know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone
