Blue Grey Eyes

Well it's time to go now

I can't be late

You always knew that

It would be this way

You should have seen it

In my blue grey eyes

That I'd be leaving

For a long old time

Say my goodbyes for me

I cannot wait

I've been waiting long enough now baby

And I'm already late

And through these gates I walk

Don't follow behind

You've made your choices babe

Now I'll have mine

And in the ceremony

Don't let a stranger weep for me

It'll only make me angry

When I'm trying to sleep

And all these people

We used to know

Won't you please tell them

I was glad to go

You say I'm selfish

You say I'm unkind

How could I leave you

To sit and mourn and cry

Well maybe I've been mourning

My whole damn life

You just didn't see it through

My blue grey eyes

You just didn't see it through

My blue grey eyes
