I Will Miss You When You Go

Johnny Cash · Stash Of Cash [2011]

I will miss you when you go much more than you'll ever know

But I'll have a memory to keep you near

In my heart you will remain but it just won't be the same

I will miss a million things that make you dear

Your lovely ways make you so sweet I prayed the angels fair will keep

You're happiness so you'll be blessed just as you deserve to be

I wonder why there are so few lovely people like you

My but I will surely miss you when you go

[ steel ]

Your lovely ways make you...
