"Throw Me A Party" lyrics - RITA WILSON

I lived my life as kind as I could
I did my best I hope I was good
I'll always wish I'd crossed a few more lines
But I always lived like there wasn't enough time

I'll leave footprints for you in the sand
A couple of notes only you'll understand
I have one wish that someday you'll see
How much your love, your love has meant to me

[Chorus:]
So when I'm gone throw me a party
You should dance as if I was there
Don't be sad or be broken hearted
Send your voices up in the air

Sing my songs and light up the sparklers
Tell my stories and drink all my wine
And know my life is just getting started
When I'm gone
Throw me a party

Step outside with my ashes
Wait for a beautiful wind
Underneath that fire yellow aspen
Toss me to her leaves and let the healing begin

[Chorus:]
So when I'm gone throw me a party
You should dance as if I was there
Don't be sad or be broken hearted
Send your voices up in the air

Sing my songs and light up the sparklers
Tell my stories and drink all my wine
And know my life is just getting started
When I'm gone
Throw me a party

[Bridge:]
The hardest part is
Knowing that you'll miss me
Won't you promise

[Chorus:]
That when I'm gone you'll throw me a party
You should dance as if I was there
Don't be sad or be broken hearted
Send your voices up in the air

Sing my songs and light up the sparklers
Tell my stories and drink all my wine
And know my life is just getting started
When I'm gone
Throw me a party
Don't be sad or be broken hearted
Send your voices up in the air
