I put one hand in the air I'm closin' my eyes
My whole heart's beatin' for the very first time
That boy here in town says, "Darlin' just drive"
I swear the gates of Heaven just opened up a wide
And Lord, I'm glad you didn't, pay me no attention
When I sent up a prayer of a child's premonition, 'cause
I've had time to bloom
Plantin' them roses instead and
I'm changin' my tune, from when I said
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life
Now I know there's no, such thing as enough time
I'm lookin' more like my mother, I love her to the bone
I know it's gonna kill me on the day she goes home
I'll pour some holy water on the daughter of my own
I'll pass my name down 'fore it's on a headstone
It was so dramatic, beautiful but tragic
Throwin' my emotions in a poem 'bout a casket, but
I've had time to bloom
Plantin' them roses instead and
I'm changin' my tune, from when I said
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life
Now I know there's no, such thing as enough time
Oh, oh
I'm so glad I'm here now
Instead of somewhere underground
I think I'll always wanna stay
I guess it's too late anyway
To die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life
Now I know there's no, such thing as enough time
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
