Don't go saying i'm leaving you |
|
Thinking i never got close enough to stay |
|
Time runs in, and then runs out |
|
Starts again and it's always been that way |
|
You're gonna drown tomorrow |
|
If you cry to many tears for yesterday |
|
Tomorrow's half of all you've got |
|
So treat him good, 'cause when i'm gone, he'll stay |
|
I won't be forgetting you |
|
You won't be forgetting me, i know |
|
If memory comes a summer cloud |
|
Rains her sweetness down to me below |
|
I see you like you look right now |
|
Maybe wonder why i had to go |
|
But heaven is the way she is |
|
Rain falls and rivers flow |
|
So here's to feelin' good |
|
Here's to feelin' bad |
|
Here's to bein' thankful |
|
Sorry for the pleasures that we had |
|
And autumn days and window panes |
|
God, forgive us if you feel decieved |
|
The clock don't know you like i do |
|
And it's only him or me you got to believe |
