On a bench with a tree, but alone Watching birds eating trash out of trash bins Singing him songs of life He'd rather die The sun is almost gone Don't want to go home Home had left with her He'd rather sleep there If I only could, I would kiss you alive If I only could, I would kiss you goodbye Goodbye The bottle is empty again He read the newspaper sixty-three times He really needs a shower But he stays there instead If I only could, I would kiss you alive If I only could, I would kiss you goodbye Goodbye If I only could, I would kiss you alive If I only could, I would kiss you goodbye Goodbye I would kiss you goodbye Goodbye I would kiss you goodbye Goodbye On a bench with a tree, but alone Watching birds eating trash out of trash bins Singing him songs of life
