I ain't much to look at And I don't have much money Folks around here They don't think much of me But oh, that's how it goes Bad news does travel And word gets around I hear them whispering All over town You know, I knew she'd go I knew she'd go, but oh I don't need a way to remember It'll all fade to grey come December I live in delusion You live in denial A difference that we cannot reconcile But oh, how should I know? They say I'm from Mars And you are from Venus I can't cross over This canyon between us Oh, no, it's too far to go It's much too far to go, but hey I don't need a way to remember It'll all fade to grey come December, yeah The flame is gone Not even an ember A cold day will dawn come December, yeah Well, I'm all alone And the world just keeps spinning I can't really tell If it's the end or beginning But oh, that's the way it goes That's the way that it goes, yeah But oh, yeah, come on now I don't need a way to remember, oh It'll all fade to grey come December, yeah, yeah yeah The flame is gone Not even an ember, oh, yeah A cold day will dawn come December, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah yeah
