Goodbye, my boy, I'm glad I knew you My boy, I'm glad I knew you well But behind me, there's a walking road I've gotta leave behind And there's just so many stories left to tell Goodbye, my boy, I'm glad I knew you My boy, you sure put me through hell But I wouldn't give a minute of the time I had with you No, it's just that I can't live with this so well I've lived with you, my boy, inside me And you know something, you're with me every day Well you're crawling up inside me, hanging around me all the time And up to now I just couldn't put you away But you're leaning up on me now like a specter Like a stranger I just turn an empty head You've been bottled up inside me now for oh so many days And no matter what I do, you'll still be dead And I know that one day you will find me And we'll laugh just like we used to do And no matter what I thought before I'll never think no less of you But you can't come with me, my boy, I can't take you Though I've never missed nobody so well But you chose a different path, and how I wish you could see me now But there's just too many stories left to tell Well, you know, my boy, I surely loved you In the little time that you were free And I hope to make sure that mistakes like yours, my boy Won't do to others what you did to me Goodbye, my boy, I'm glad I knew you You slipped, my boy, with you I fell But I'm blessed 'cause I can pick myself up and leave my boy behind 'Cause there's just so many stories left to tell |
