lyrics

Let's get married this Friday afternoon,
with only the judge and me and you,
in this tiny hospital room.

Just five years ago I was,
in service to the lord above,
one look at her and I was done,
and I don't regret the path I've come.

(chorus)
Just let me cast absentee,
'cuz I won't be here next week.
Yea, sure, I'm going to south Chicago,
that for me is easier to swallow, than this:

I'm going now,
I'm saying bye,
no one knows,
what happens when,
love leaves your eyes.

Well Sunday came too soon,
and I left you what to do.
Just put me down in the morning dew,
just the ground and me and you.

(chorus)

I'm going now,
I'm saying bye,
no one knows,
what happens when,
love leaves your eyes.
I'm going now,
I'm gonna try,
to find you in,
another life,
'cuz no one knows...
