Albert Hammond - When I'm gone 1981
When I'm gone
will you take good care of everything?
Will you keep wearing your wedding ring?
When I'm gone.
And when I'm gone
will you take out all the photographs
Maybe spend a moment in the past?
When I'm gone.
Will you miss me in the night?
Will your arms reach out to hold me tight
And keep me in your dreams
in your heart
in your life?
Sometimes I'll wanna run to you
like lovers do
When love is new
and just for a moment be close to you
Pretending I'm still holding you.
And even when I'm far away
the dreams will stay.
And someday
after we've both chased our fantasies
Love will bring you back to me.
(Instrumental)
When I'm gone
I'll be thinking about you constantly
'Cause you're locked inside my memory

Lyrics:
The Free Electric Band (A. Hammond - Mums Records/Columbia/Epic)
My father is a doctor, he's a family man
My mother works for charity whenever she can
They're both good clean Americans who abide by the law
They both stick up for liberty, and they both support the war
My happiness was paid for when they laid their money down
For Summers in a Summer camp, and Winters in the town
My future in the system was talked about and planned
But I gave it up for music and the free electric band...
I went to school in hand-washed shirts with neatly ordered hair
The school was big and newly built and filled with light and air
And the teacher taught us values that we had to learn to keep
And he clipped the ear of many an idle kid who went to sleep
My father organized for me a college in the East
But I went to California, the sunshine and the beach
My parents and my lecturers could never understand
Why I gave it up for music and the free electric band...
Well, they used to sit and speculate upon their son's career
A lawyer or a doctor or a civil engineer
Just give me bread and water, put a guitar in my hand
'cause all I need is music and the free electric band...
My father sent me money and I spent it very fast
On a girl I met in Berkeley in a social science class
Yes, and we learned about her body
But her mind we didn't know
Until deep rooted attitudes and morals began to show
She wanted to get married, even though she never said
But I knew her well enough by now to see inside her head
She'd settle for suburbia and a little patch of land
So I gave her up for music and the free electric band...
