Old Man

Art Garfunkel · Angel Clare [2008]

Everyone has gone away,

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

No one cared enough to stay,

Can you hear me?



You must remember me, old man,

I know that you can if you try,

So just open up your eyes, old man,

Look who's come to say, "Good-bye."



The sun has left the sky, old man,

The birds have flown away,

And no one came to cry old man,

Good-bye, Old Man, good-bye.



You want to stay, I know you do,

But it ain't no use to try,

'Cause I'll be here, and I'm just like you.

Good-bye, old man, good-bye.



Won't be no God to comfort you,

You taught me not to believe that lie.

You don't need anybody,

Nobody needs you,

Don't cry, old man, don't cry.

Everybody dies.
