Some roads that you take Some bonds we'll choose to break I swore I'd no long be the pallbearer But I carried you to bed So you could rest your head You were taking off a load, heavy drinking The world it carries on Your memories and song And your pictures on my wall, are not forgotten There was hymns that came from mouths That turned crosses upside down But it came through their teeth with great ease
And all are bobbing heads in sync And all have got a lot on their minds to think about But you carry on in pictures and in song And the unmade be you slept in Where I laid you down to rest one last time Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend
Some stories break your heart And some with such applaud Buried deep inside, where it's ok to cry Some boys won't shed a tear Oh, but I tell it like this here It can break down and get me where it hurts the most
And all are bobbing heads in sync And all have got a lot on their minds to think about But you carry on in pictures and in song And the unmade be you slept in Where I laid you down to rest one last time Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend
But you carry on in pictures and in song And the unmade be you slept in Where I laid you down to rest one last time Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend
