Oh my dance is getting slower now,
|
Cause my years they're getting older now.
|
And my eyes, they won't cry.
|
My tears have all run dry.
|
And my memory doesn't get me very far,
|
I can't remember my name or exactly who you are.
|
And I don't know why, no I don't know why.
|
|
Will you please believe
|
I'm not the person you see,
|
I left that body long ago.
|
I left it way back there.
|
Will you please believe,
|
Given all that you see,
|
I left that body long ago
|
But somehow nobody knows.
|
|
So goodbye,
|
You were my world and my life.
|
And I don't know why
|
You've lost your mother, lost your wife.
|
But there's more,
|
Something more than meets the eye.
|
This is not the end,
|
This is only goodbye.
|
|
Will you please believe
|
I'm not the person you see,
|
I left that body long ago.
|
I left it way back there.
|
Now I'm free, I'm as happy as can be.
|
I just wanted you to know
|
That I left that body long ago.
|
So long ago.
