One, two, three
The world took the spark from his eye
And planted a seed in his mind
He's living on whiskey and rye
And he'll drink 'til he's blind
He'll drink 'til he's blind
And everyone whispers his name
And everyone says he's so kind
He's looking for someone to blame
And you'll do just fine
You'll do just fine
But I can't live with the wind and the rain
I can see through the sky
But I can't deal with a permanent pain
So goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
He's spending the winter alone
He said that it's good for his soul
He's out on the gra** in the snow
And he's lost all control
He's lost all control
And when he is ready to bloom
He may reappear in the spring
But if things go the way that he planned
He'll never be back here again
He'll never be back here again
But I can't live with the wind and the rain
I can see through the sky
But I can't deal with a permanent pain
So goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
And sometimes at night when you're home
You'll turn out the lights and you'll cry
You'll sit and you'll stare at the phone
You shouldn't be left on your own
And sometimes at night when you're home
Well, you'll turn out the lights and you'll cry
You'll sit and you'll stare at the phone
You shouldn't be left on your own
But I can't live through the wind and the rain
I can see through the sky
But I can't deal with a permanent pain
So goodbye, goodbye
Oh, but I can't live with the wind and the rain
I can see through the sky
But I can't deal with a permanent pain
So goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
