Lyrics Throw Me a Party - Rita Wilson

Throw Me a Party

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
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
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
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
