When the time comes
I will leave you
locked in the closets
of your heart
There will be no words
of consolations
No letters left upon the desk
inked with my explanations
I am sure it will be the dark of night
when whippoorwills do call
For they cry into the dark
but nothing replies at all
By the time the sun stumbles in
And you reach for the sky and yawn
The dew will cover the grass but there will be no footsteps left upon the lawn
What happens after that I really
don't want to know
I will be hitchhiking down the road
keeping it on the low
Don't blame yourself for my failures
It was just that I ran out of time
And my feet were really telling me
they were sick of all my lying
So goodbye , farewell , Godspeed ,
live long and I hope that you prosper
It's time to end the intimations
and all the pain I cause her
