I'd Better Write It Down

I stayed up all day just to watch the sun go down

These days I never know how much longer I'll be around

But when I go at least you'll know I saw all she wanted me to see

If I can leave that on paper I'll be so proud of me

Sometimes what we say is gone as soon as it's said

But if your eyes can read feelings I'm leaving then I'll never be dead

Today I saw the open door I know will surely set me free

If I can go through it with a smile I'll be so proud of me

If I'm gonna leave something behind I'd better write it down

'Cause I want to capture all that I can

While I'm still around

'Cause I know the written word won't follow me into the ground

So if I'm gonna leave something behind

I'd better write it down

If I'm gonna leave something behind

I'd better write it down
