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 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 hanging 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
