From the recording Big Change Coming
Lyrics
If I sing you this song, will you still remember?
And if I come back again, can you still be my friend?
Once upon a time, we had everything we needed
Now it's present day and oh, it's not the same
Listen, little lady, before I am gone
This is my last song before I'm movin' on
Let's make it a good one, it won't take too long
And please don't forget me after I am gone
In the beginning, babe, we started out so strong
Even through the rough times, you never did me no wrong
But something in me changed almost overnight
And to stay here with you, babe, it just wouldn't feel right
So listen, little lady, before I am gone
This is my last song before I'm movin' on
Let's make it a good one, it won't take too long
And please don't forget me after I am gone
Yes, I still care, but I'm the one to blame
So I'll be moving on, I will not bring you shame
This is not goodbye—maybe see you later
Just be my friend and I will see you again
So listen, little lady, before I am gone
This is my last song before I'm movin' on
Let's make it a good one, it won't take too long
And please don't forget me after I am gone
