Verse 1

Every-one has gone a-way;

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

No one cared enough to stay.

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

Chorus 1

 You must remember me, old man,

 I know that you can if you try.

 So just open up your eyes, old man,

Look who's come to say good-bye.

Verse 2

 The sun has left the sky, old man,

 The birds have flown a-way.

 And no one came to cry, old man,

 Good-bye, old man, good-bye.

Verse 3

 You want to stay, I know you do,

 But it ain't no use to try.

 'Cos I'll be here, and I'm just like you,

 Good-bye, old man, good-bye.

Chorus 2

 Won't be no God to comfort you,

 You taught me not to believe that lie.

 You don't need anybody, no-body needs you;

Don't cry, old man, don't cry;

 Every-body dies.
