Lyrics

My life is an endless succession
Of people saying goodbye

My life is an endless succession
Of people saying goodbye

And what's left for me?
What's left for me?

At one time the future
Did stretch out before me
But now it stretches behind

And all of the best things
In life are behind glass
Money, jewelry, and flesh

And what's left for me?
What's left for me?
