Goodbye, Dear Friend - Deer Tick

Some roads that you take

Some bonds will choose to break

And I swore I’d no longer be

The pallbearer

But I carried you to bed

So you could rest your head

You were taking off a load

Heavy drinkin'

The world it carries on

Your memories in songs

And your pictures on my wall

Are not forgotten

There was hymns that came from mouths

That turned crosses upside down

But it came through their teeth

With great ease

And all are bobbing heads in sync

And all have got a lot on their minds to think about

But you, you carry on

In pictures and in songs

And the unmade bed you slept in

Where I laid you down to rest one last time

Goodbye, dear friend

Goodbye, dear friend

Some stories break your heart

And some with such applaud

Buried deep inside

Where it’s ok to cry

Some boys won’t shed a tear

Oh, but a tale like this here

It can break me down and get me

Where it hurts the most

And all are bobbing heads in sync

And all have got a lot on their minds to think about

But you, you carry on

In pictures and in songs

And the unmade bed you slept in

Where I laid you down to rest one last time

Goodbye, dear friend

Goodbye, dear friend

But you carry on

In pictures and in songs

And the unmade bed you slept in

Where I laid you down to rest one last time

Goodbye, dear friend

Goodbye, dear friend
