[Verse 1]
Blue flashing lights
Pass through the station
A siren crowed
For break of day
You were by my side
But slowly fading
As a memory
Does over time

[Chorus]
You will forget about me someday
Just some friend you knew when you were young
I hate to break that to you, baby
I thought it might dry your eye
As time moves on

[Verse 2]
Black whistle blow
You know I'm leaving
On that old
Heavenly train
It really numbed my mind
To watch you breathin’
All fast and rough
And so out of time
[Chorus]
You will forget about me someday
Just some friend you knew when you were young
I hate to break that to you, baby
I thought it might dry your eye
As time moves on
I said time, yeah, time moves on
Long after we're gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You will forget about me someday
Just some friend you knew when you were young
I hate to break that to you, baby
I thought it might dry your eye
As time moves on
I said time, yeah, time moves on
Long after we're gone
