and i know that it's true

all the fire has burned thru

well you know i've played so hard

and the light grows so dim

and my time's getting slim

all the words just don't mean much

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die

in my heart there's a wind

and it swirls up a dim

it's so loud it drowns my mind

till the coin that i pass

to the ferryman's grasp

let's me leave my pain behind

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die

so i part and i'm oh so cold

and i hope to release my heart

better leave while my song still calls

it's the truth that i'm going down to die

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die

and i know i'm saying goodbye

and i know that i'm going down to die
