“My troubles are manyThey're deep as a wellI swear there ain't no HeavenAnd I pray there ain't no hellBut I'll never know by livingonly my dying will tell.And when I dieand when I'm goneThere'll be, one child bornAnd a world to carry on, to carry on.”Laura Nyro "And When I Die" Lyrics
“Give me my freedom for as long as I beAll I ask of livin' is to have no chains on meAll I ask of livin' is to have no chains on meAnd all I ask of dyin' is to go naturally…And when I die, and when I'm goneThere'll be one child born, in our worldTo carry on, to carry on…”Laura Nyro "And When I Die" Lyrics
