A day in the life of a fool
a sad and a long lonely day
i walk the avenue and hope i'll run into
the welcome sight of you coming my way
I stop just across from your door
but you're never home any more
so back to my room
and there in the gloom i cry
tears of goodbye
<instrumental-strings-first two lines of second verse>
So back to my room
and there in the gloom i cry
tears of good bye
