Time for me to go away
|
I'll get a new name, I'll get a new face
|
Time for me to go away
|
No I don't belong in this place
|
|
But I'm not gonna ask you why
|
You think the parade has passed you by
|
Or if everything good is gone into the western sky
|
|
I hate to see you look that way
|
All the beauty has left your face
|
That's such an easy thing to give away
|
That's impossible to replace
|
|
So I'll take you in my two weak hands
|
And I'll throw you so high
|
Watch you fall forever in the western sky
|
And when you land you'll turn into some kind of prize
|
Into somebody's sweet prize
|
|
I won't see you no more
|
Who am I to rate that high
|
The world's a shadow of what went before
|
The world gives off none of its own light
|
|
So please be happy baby
|
And please don't cry
|
Even though the parade has passed us by
|
Well you can still see it shining in the western sky
|
So why won't you stop crying
|
You can still see it shining
|
