I think I'll buy me a candle
Light up my own funeral
No one will know the reason why
But I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
Goodbye
See the candle burning
You feel your whole life turning
Why'd he do this? you ask
But no one could see behind the mask
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
Goodbye
Now I'm gone like the candle
Just another picture on the mantle
Your better off alone
I had nowhere else to roam
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
I'd rather not say goodbye
Goodbye
