When you see me again I hope that you have been I wish I could If you want me to stay I'll be around today To be available for you to see I'm about to go And then you'll know For me to stay here I've got to be me

When you see me again I hope that you have been I wish I could If you want me to stay I'll be around today To be available for you to see I'm about to go And then you'll know For me to stay here I've got to be me

I hope you never see me wind up Want a song that's indelible, like manimal, What is wrong with this animal? I'm terrible Farewell, my sweet paramania I have a choice between the bat or the belt Each time I hear about the hand you've been dealt Spare me

I had been hopeful that I would have the time to get closer to you If you wanted me to I feel like crying the more I think about the times that I tried To say the things I was thinking of At the time

You say daddy come home I hope when I get there that it won't be too late We'll just have to wait I'm sending this letter I'll mail it today There's so many things I've been wanting to say Your mom sent some pictures And my how you've grown Rock n' roll

For the longest time For the longest That hasn't happened for the longest time I haven't been there for the longest time And it's more than I hoped for If you said goodbye to me tonight There would still be music left to write What else could I do
