When I Die
You Give Me Strength When I Start To Worry
You Lift Me Up When I'm Feeling Sorry
You're Building Me Up With Love & Affection
When I'm In Danger You're My Protection

And I'm The One You Can Depend Upon
I'll Always Treat You Right, Never Do You Wrong

No One Will Ever Love You Better

And When They Moan I'll Still Be True To You

When I Die
Milli Vanilli

You give me strength when I start to worry
Chilling me down when I start to hurry
Building me up with love and affection
When I'm in danger, you're my protection

And I am the one you can depend upon
I'll always treat you right, never do you wrong
Just feel this love burning inside of me
It's gonna last for eternity

Sometimes you're afraid I won't be there for you
But through it all, I'll always cherish you
You're my angel sent down from heaven
And I'll make sure you'll never be blue

Baby, I love you, ooh
Baby, I need you, yes, I do

And when I die, I'll keep on living
You'll always have my love seeing you through
I'll be your angel up in heaven
Forever all my love will shine down on you

Baby, I love you, ooh
Baby, I need you, yes, I do

Girl, you got someone you can believe in
No one can take away what we are feeling
Real love is strong, it goes on forever
No one will ever love you better

And when I'm gone, I'll still be true to you
The seed of love lives inside of you
I'll be your angel up there in heaven
And all my love will shine down on you

Baby, I love you, ooh
Baby, I need you, yes, I do

And when I die, I'll keep on living
You'll always have my love seeing you through
I'll be your angel up in heaven
Forever all my love will shine down on you

Baby, I love you, ooh
Baby, I need you, yes, I do

And when I die, I'll keep on living
You'll always have my love seeing you through
I'll be your angel up in heaven
Forever all my love will shine down on you

RIP John Davis. John Passed away from Covid 2021. What most people don't know, the awesome drummer from both Milli Vanilli line ups, Mikky Byron! Mikky was multi- talented and also fronted a hard rock band with him on guitar. Like the late Robert Pilatus, Mikky suffered from depression and in 2004, he sadly ended his life.
this is a perfect song for those who are gone but not forgotten. May Fab Morvan and Steve Howell get together someday and play some good music.

@cesnav7593

Brad Howell, not Steve
