When I Go - Over the Rhine

When I Go Lyrics

It makes a difference
When you walk through a room
With that worrisome smile
Road weary perfumeBut this isn't the place
And it isn't the time
For this beautiful delusion
That is robbing me blindI want to know
I want to know
Will it make a difference
When I goIt makes a difference
That I'm feeling this way
With plenty to think about
And so little to sayExcept for this confession
That is poised on my lips
I'm not letting go of God
I'm just losing my gripI want to know
I want to know
Will it keep you guessing

When I goWhat is a love
If the love's not my own
This is not my home
This is lonely
But never aloneI just want to hold you
In my gaze for awhile
So I can remember
Every line around your smileThen I want to know
I want to know
Will it make a difference
When I go
