WHEN I’M GONE When I come to the end of my journey And I travel my last weary mile Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned And remember only my genuine smile Forget unkind words I have spoken Remember some good I have done Forget that I ever had heartache And remember I have had lots of fun Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered and sometimes fell by the way Remember I have fought some hard battles And won , ere the close of the day Then forget to grieve for my going I would not have you sad for a day But in the summer just gather some flowers And remember the place that I lay And come in the shade of the evening when the sun paints the sky in the West Stand for a few moments beside me And remember only my best
