If I Die Young Pt. 2

I'll put one hand in the air
I'm closing my eyes
My whole heart's beating for the very first time
That boy here in town says, "Darlin' just drive"
I swear the gates of Heaven just opened up 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 changing 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 looking 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
Throwing my emotions in a poem 'bout a casket
But
I've had time to bloom
Plantin' them roses instead and
I'm changing 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
And 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
