The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sayin' goodbye is not easy
How will I ever explain?
Everyone looks just like cardboard pictures,
Falling apart in the rain
I thought I'd found a home
But life in the city, it's dark and it's dirty
So I have to go away
Lonely, yes I am
No one knows my name
I'm lost in a place, no one has a face
So I guess I'll have to go away
Sayin' goodbye is not easy
How can I ever explain?
And everything looks just like cardboard pictures,
Falling apart in the rain
Running, yes I am
Wave goodbye to all the trains
If I'm looking for a river that goes on forever,
Then I guess I'll have to go away
Sayin' goodbye is not easy
How will I ever explain?
Everyone looks just like cardboard pictures,
Falling apart in the rain
