Dyin’

[Verse 1]
I'm dyin', I’m dyin', I'm leaving this world
I'm not even worried if tomorrow’s a-coming
You're all in the same boat as me, I’m afraid
You know I'm not lying, it’s only a rain cloud

[Verse 2]
You love me, my darling, you love me so kind
If I come home tonight, dear, I'll never come home
And outside the moon shines so softly again
Literal meanings are all left defenseless

[Chorus]
And I'm alone when I'm runnin'
And I'm alone when I'm down
And I'm not often right here
But I'm less often lyin'

[Verse 5]
Well all of my good friends they come to my door
Say you’re not going nowhere, don't be crazy
I end with the nile, I end with a smile
I’ll end all confusion, I haven't the time

[Chorus]
And I'm alone when I'm runnin'
And I'm alone when I'm down
And I'm not often right here
But I'm less often lyin'

[Verse 4]
I'm dyin', I'm dyin', I'll say it again
It won't change a thing, no, it won't slow me down
And if we're all just dyin', stop wasting my time
Stop wasting your own as well, don’t be crazy

[Chorus]
And I'm alone when I'm runnin'
And I'm alone when I'm down
And I'm not often right here
But I'm less often lyin'
