[Verse 1]
Hello, my friend
I'm gonna be here till the end
Of the universe if I can
I wanna fly up in the sky, sky, sky
I wanna dance with you
Take my hand, and I'll show you a few moves
This is it, no more sorrow
Leave the living for today, and dying for tomorrow

[Chorus]
No, I can't tell you how to say goodbye
'Cause I've been waiting most of my life
Behind the curtain, she's staring at my grave
She slowly dances on her hospital bed, hospital bed

[Verse 2]
Well, I say what I mean
And I got all I need
But I stand at 19
Fell from the heavens, I'm the sun king
What you got? What you need?
Thank your god and get off your knees
'Cause you're giving just to please
Oh, leave the living for today, and dying for tomorrow
[Chorus]
No, I can't tell you how to say goodbye
'Cause I've been waiting most of my life
Behind the curtain, she's staring at my grave
She slowly dances on her hospital bed, hospital bed

[Post-Chorus]
Oh
Okay
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ow

[Bridge]
Well, I saw the world at its worst
And I lived with Jesus first
I am so blessed and cursed
Laying in the back of this Cadillac hearse
Well, I saw an angel cry
Well, you saw the devil die
Well, I have the last goodbye
Laying in the back of this Cadillac hearse

[Interlude]
Well, no, I can't tell you how to say goodbye

[Chorus]
No, I can't tell you how to say goodbye
'Cause I've been waiting most of my life
Behind the curtain, she's staring at my grave
She slowly dances on her hospital bed, hospital bed
