On the day I die
You better dance, don't cry
Baby, I'll be leaving on a high
On the day I die
Find the keys to my old car
Pray it starts and take it for a drive
Roll the windows down
Turn the music up
Start singing (whoa, whoa)
And get lost in a song
And take the wrong road home
Like I always used to
If I did one thing right
It was you and I
Oh, I loved you
I'll always love you
So play it loud all night
If I'm not by your side
I'm up above you
I'll always love you
I've had a good, good life
So, darling, dance, don't cry
On the day I die
On the day I die
I want nothing left unspoken
I can't rely on hoping that you know
So dry your eyes
'Cause I don't plan on dying yet
Just take my hand
How I lucky I am
The only life I get
I get to hold you close
With the lights down low
And dance real slow (whoa, whoa)
When you hear this song
And when I'm gone
I know that you'll know
If I did one thing right
It was you and I
Oh, I loved you
I'll always love you
So play it loud all night
If I'm not by your side
I'm up above you
I'll always love you
I've had a good, good life
So, darling, dance, don't cry
On the day I die
On the day I die (whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa)
On the day, on the day I die, oh (whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa)
On the day I die
You better dance, don't cry
Oh baby, I'll be leaving on a high
On the day I die

On the day I die
You better dance, don't cry
Baby, I'll be leaving on a high
On the day I die
Find the keys to my old car
Pray it starts and take it for a drive
Roll the windows down
Turn the music up
Start singing (whoa, whoa)
And get lost in a song
And take the wrong road home
Like I always used to
If I did one thing right

Oh, I loved you
I'll always love you
So play it loud all night
If I'm not by your side
I'm up above you
I'll always love you

So, darling, dance, don't cry
On the day I die
On the day I die

On the day I die (whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa)
On the day, on the day I die, oh (whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa)
On the day I die
You better dance, don't cry
Oh baby, I'll be leaving on a high
On the day I die
You better dance, don't cry
