Stuart Davis Goodbye To Me
I'm at the ocean, standing on it's floor
the sand beneath my feet pins me to it's shore
I taste the salt filling up my lungs
not half as bitter as my life here had become
After all I'm the one who dies
the one who loses his childhood eyes
I find my closure at the sea
Goodbye to me
I'm floating heavy, sinking half below
six feet from freedom when I let my spirit go
Inside I'm searching for the tunnel filled with light
but only darkness swallows up my fading sight
After all I'm the one who dies
the one who loses his childhood eyes
I find my closure at the sea
Goodbye to me
And they'll all wished they'd saved me
when I'm dead and gone
they'll say "How can we go on?"
But no one seems to notice till you're in the earth
what your precious life was worth
After all I'm the one who dies
the one who loses his childhood eyes
I find my closure at the sea
Goodbye to me
