Sam Tsui - If I Die Young Lyrics
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
oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you
when she stands under my colors oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be no
ain't even grey but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life well
I've had just enough time
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 well
I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never fell in love with no one
But it sure felt nice when I held you in the sun
And you, you took my hand said you'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life well
I've had just enough time
A penny for my thoughts
oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin?
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin...
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
oh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh
The sharp knife of a short life

If you still love this song at 2019 le this song like my comment.
This hits harder when you lose a friend. I miss you Ivan RIP brother
Can this be my funeral song
Whos here watch it as me 2019
2019 anyone? :'(
i find sam tsui voice very generic :/ like it doesnt impressed at all
His voice gives me goosebumps since I was a lil girl with this life and this situations it’s just something I can’t explain
Tribute to Dazai San
Is this the original key?
2019 anyone?
Very unique voice in a nice way. Didn't know there's a man out there who can pull off this song in this way. Bravo!
My gf and i were together for 3 years, then just a few weeks ago, my mom broke the two of us up. Since then, every time i hear this, i cant help but keep playing the part from 2:12 to 2:28 over and over again. But if i could say anything else to my ex; i'd tell her to keep listening to 2:58. I'd tell her not to cry over me. "Gather up your tears, keep'em in your pocket. Save'em for a time when you're really gonna need'em."
I always listen to this song because a classmate of mine (who was just a high school freshman) killed himself at the beginning of the year and sometimes I still cry about it. I didn’t know him all too well, but many of my friends were extremely close with him. Sometimes I wonder that if I had just stepped in and helped him then he would still be here. But now it’s too late. The worst part is the school completely ignored it. There was a girl who died at the beginning of the year due to a seizure. They set up a memorial service at the school, a huge celebration, she made the news, etc. and yes, she deserved all of that recognition but so did the other boy. He was so funny and nice, and he was always making people laugh. The day after I found out I just couldn’t stop sobbing. I broke down in first period because of the fact that the school didn’t even SAY A WORD about him on the announcements. My friend and I were talking about it and after the announcements I just kind of lost it and had to go to the counselor. I will never forget him. He deserved so much better, and I can’t help but feel like I failed him. Now everyday I constantly think about who I know that could be next. What if it were my family member or my close friend? Just please remember to cherish your moments with your loved ones. They are precious. And always show people kindness and love. Even when they don’t deserve it. You never know what a person is going through or the battle that they’re fighting in their head. Everyday I wish I could’ve reached out to that boy. Please try to do the same for others.

So..... is this a guy or girl? Don’t come at me with that offended bull shit. I’m asking honestly.
I wish those YouTube singers would stop posing in front of the camera and actually live the words they singing... 🙄
Nice voice though.

This song Means a Lot to me After my Idol Died.
Christina Grimmie was at a Concert (Her Concert) and A Man Shot Her, Shortly before the Concert Started, she gave him a Hug.
What kind of Cruel person does that?!??!!
Sam Tsui Made a Tribute to Christina, It Was Just a Dream, He did it Because before she died they Sung it together, so when he Sang it by Himself he missed out her Verses.
Best version ever
Jonghyun.
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. My younger sister and my elder brother died. And left me lonely in this stupid and selfish world. But it's okay. I loved you both and still do.
Zakochałam się❤❤❤. W tym wykonaniu ta piosenka jest piekna😢
This song reminds me too much of my auntie when it says “funny when ur dead how people start listening” because we never listened that she needed help when she was alive she died at the age of 24 a month before her birthday 😭😭😭😭
Over pronunciation (Which is good) 😀😀😊😊
Definitely better then the original
*2018 anyone?* Still in love. 💕
R.i.p jonghyun..💭
