Lyrics
0:07It＇s good to know how big a life can be
0:12Especially when it falls away so easily
0:16And how hard it is to let you take your leave
0:20Also I wish you all the things
0:21That you believe in
0:24Like riches
0:26Now that they＇re different
0:28And work
0:30With your burden lifted like riches
0:33Now that they＇re different
0:36And work
0:38With your burden lifted
0:39I wish all those things if you would leave
0:44Bright clothes for winter
0:48Bright clothes for winter
0:54When you go on your journey
0:55Don＇t say goodbye
0:57Don＇t need clothes to wear
0:59Or money to buy
1:01Don't take a bed to sleep in
1:02Or sleeves to cry on
1:05And don＇t go gently into that good night
1:09And take riches
1:12Now that they＇re different
1:14And work
1:16With your burden lifted take riches
1:20Now that they＇re different
1:22And work
1:24With your burden lifted
1:25I wish all those things if you would leave
1:30Bright clothes for winter
1:34Bright clothes for winter
1:44You found a great big kingdom
1:48And you gave it all away
1:52And how I want live there
1:56And how I hope you＇ll stay
1:59And take riches
2:02Now that they＇re different
2:04And work
2:06With your burden lifted take riches
2:10Now that they＇re different
2:11And work
2:14With your burden lifted
2:15I wish all those things if you would leave
2:20Bright clothes for winter
2:24Bright clothes for winter
2:28Bright clothes for winter
It＇s good to know how big a life can be Especially when it falls away so easily And how hard it is to let you take your leave Also I wish you all the things That you believe in Like riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted like riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted I wish all those things if you would leave Bright clothes for winter Bright clothes for winter When you go on your journey Don＇t say goodbye Don＇t need clothes to wear Or money to buy Don't take a bed to sleep in Or sleeves to cry on And don＇t go gently into that good night And take riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted take riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted I wish all those things if you would leave Bright clothes for winter Bright clothes for winter You found a great big kingdom And you gave it all away And how I want live there And how I hope you＇ll stay And take riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted take riches Now that they＇re different And work With your burden lifted I wish all those things if you would leave Bright clothes for winter Bright clothes for winter Bright clothes for winter
