I've heard people say they¡¯ve come for miles
|
To pay their due respects
|
(for mileage, each expects).
|
"A pillar of community and style".
|
"At heart, a family man
|
Who'd had a change of plan".
|
|
Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley,
|
Denton Road, The Roosevelt Hotel
|
For my own farewell
|
And if you don't show, that's fine.
|
|
What's it say about me that I'm bored?
|
Don't need another speech
|
To know I'm out of reach.
|
Someone made a joke about the lord
|
And somehow it relates
|
To a dash between the dates.
|
|
Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley,
|
Denton Road, The Roosevelt Hotel
|
For my own farewell
|
And if you don't show, that's fine.
|
|
I don't expect you to.
|
You've got other things to do
|
In a life I now know that I never really knew.
|
|
The light are going out. They shut the lid.
|
I guess I lost the thread.
|
I'm in over my head.
|
|
Goodbye Sally, Simi Valley,
|
Denton Road, The Roosevelt Hotel
|
For my own farewell
|
And if you don't show, that's fine.
|
|
For my own farewell
|
And if you don¡¯t show, that's fine.
