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