I went down to the boneyard
to visit my best friend
down to the boneyard
to visit once again
and I sat on the stone
and tried to comprehend
why did you leave
why did you have to go
why did you have to leave
man I just don't know
you disappeared one day
and left me all alone
this is a hostile world
such an unfriendly place
such a hostile world
you see it in their face
but you have to suck it up
though it leaves a bitter taste
we used to sing and laugh
sitting round the fire
we used to laugh and sing
and speak of heart's desire
now I hear the church bells ring
the voices of the choir
I hope you're looking down
watching over me
in the place where lost is found
and you're forever free
I don't know how much longer
I can let it be
I went down to the boneyard
to talk to my best friend
down to the boneyard
to ask him once again
why is it all good things
come to an end?
