Today I got a letter from someone Just a friend we knew some time ago And as I read between the lines I began to realize He didn't know, I'd lost you A long long time ago Oh I, just can't make it any longer Everything I do is always wrong I'm livin' a lie And there's no need in tryin' To keep hangin' on After all the good is gone Lord, I wish that I could die And there's no use in tryin' To keep hangin' on After all the good is gone
