See the man sittin` at the corner He looks at life and he knows he`s lost He thinks of times when he wasn`t a loner Of times and people, people that he knew from his past Wanders on trough the streets in the city A place he used to know People laugh, not ashamed of his pity But time grows like his pain and his sorrow
We know he`s old, but how long will he last He never thought, that life would ever Ever pass him by so fast
Sometimes it feels like life`s a goodbye Lookin` in from the outside You never turn around, you`ve got to hide Life is only a goodbye
Father`s home, he looks into the mirror Spits at his reflection Hears a voice saying "You`re a sinner" And he feels that he can`t take the rejection no more Family`s home, feeling safe and peaceful Don`t hear the footsteps in the night T.V. plays, while father shoots to kill `em When they asked him why, he said that life`s a goodbye
We know he`s sick, and we know he won`t last He never thought that life would ever Ever pass him by so fast
Sometimes it feels like life`s a goodbye Lookin` in from the outside You never turn around, you`ve got to hide Life is only a goodbye
He never thought, that life would ever Ever pass him by so fast
Sometimes it feels like life`s a goodbye Lookin` in from the outside You never turn around, you`ve got to hide Life is only a goodbye Sometimes it feels like life`s a goodbye Lookin` in from the outside You never turn around, you`ve got to hide Life is only a goodbye
