(Don't Pass Me By)
I’m living in a nursing home
In a room all by myself
I’m living in a nursing home
Where they put you on the shelf
Waiting for me to shuffle off
From this mortal coil
It doesn’t happen,
Does it mean it’s gonna happen in a while?
I can’t hear the clock ticking,
On the mantel shelf
Can’t see the hands moving,
And I'm by myself
I wonder where I am tonight,
And why I'm by myself
I don't see you,
Does it mean I don’t remember anymore?
Don't ask me why, I don’t know why, it makes me blue
'Cause you know darling, I can’t remember you
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go
Don't ask me why, it makes me cry
I need pills to sleep at night,
I’m in daily care
I’ve lost my teeth and my mind
I’ve also lost my hair
Apparently, you left me here
About a day or two.
I said, I don’t know what I’m doing here,
And I don’t remember who are you”
Don't ask me why, I don’t know why, it makes me blue
'Cause you know darling, I can’t remember you
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go
Don't ask me why, it makes me cry
Don't ask me why, I don’t know why, it makes me blue
'Cause you know darling, I can’t remember you
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go
Don't ask me why, it makes me cry
