After You're Gone - Iris DeMent

There’ll be laughter even after you’re gone

I’ll find reasons to face that empty dawn

'Cause I’ve memorized each line in your face

And not even death can ever erase

The story they tell to me

I’ll miss you

Oh, how I’ll miss you

I’ll dream of you

And I’ll cry a million tears

But the sorrow will pass

And the one thing that will last

Is the love that you’ve given to me

There’ll be laughter even after you’re gone

I’ll find reasons and I’ll face that empty dawn

'Cause I’ve memorized each line in your face

And not even death could ever erase

The story they tell to me
