They didn't understand you, no
Always stand around too long
And, oh, I'm gonna miss you, dear
So I tried in vain to write it again
Willing it to turn into your hair
Before you had the chance to die
And oh, I'm going to miss you, dear
Expecting to turn and see you there
They didn't even try
But I'm not going to cry
Looked to mine for a sign of grief
Were beginning to fade under the heavy rain
The flowers I've brought you
I'm so glad that your life stopped now
But I stayed to talk with you
But I don't have to cry
Your name on the card had run
After they had gone
A thousand raincoats
I ran my fingers through the long grass
Their tear-stained faces
I'm so glad that you left us now
I sat there for a long time
I'm so glad that you left us now
Before you had the chance to die
