Lyrics

Well by the time you get this letter It'll be too late for goodbyes 'Cause I promised I'd never leave you Not 'til the day I die But I've broken every promise That I promised to keep And I know you know I know I'm not The man that I thought was me And the second chance I take These tears in your eyes Still you will not walk away Find yourself another guy Well why do I always feel lost When I'm out on the old side of town Where the streets they all are empty And the buildings are falling down Where I haunt the deserted railroad yards Where the trees grow between the tracks I can find my face in passing In yellow photographs Why do I always leave the ones that I love Why do my heroes always fail All my friends are losers Drunk again or in the jail So if you see my ghost tonight Out panhandling for change Just another faded penny man Without the sense to come in from the rain Won't you tell him that it's over He must go away 'Cause you don't need no shades hanging 'round To turn your blue skies to gray If you see my ghost tonight If the toll's too much to pay Won't you give him just one single Lincoln worth of your love And send him on his way Well won't you give him just one single Lincoln worth of your love And send him on his way
