I drove up the hill just to say goodbyeBut all I found was a "For Sale" signPut my hand on the gate and there's tears in my eyesAnd all that's been left since the minute you diedAre the chandeliers in the trees, ceramic beesNow they're just covered in leavesMy hands are shaking as I type in the codeThe gate doesn't open, just a voice that says, "No"But I know inside there's a piece of your soulThat they're painting over and everything else will be soldAnd the piano that played on its own is not playing no moreI wish that you had called somebody (Oh)And if I wasn't there, I'm sorry (Oh)You made me believe you were strongI wish you had called meand told me that something was wrongSo goodbye to my best friend ever (Oh)I can't believe you're gone forever (Oh)I came up to find you today'Cause I finally found all the wordsthat I needed to sayBut a dark thought got there firstThey buried your ashes in a Prozac pillAnd all the vultures came to chew on your willI hate that you're gone and the questions you leaveAnd it's sad that your daughter's not talking to meWell, I can't draw a heartSo I drew you a staron the Hollywood BoulevardI wish that you had called somebody (Oh)And if I wasn't there, I'm sorry (Oh)You made me believe you were strongI wish you had called meAnd told me that something was wrongSo goodbye to my best friend ever (Oh)I can't believe you're gone forever (Oh)I came up to find you today'Cause I finally found all the wordsthat I needed to sayBut a dark thought got there firstDark thought did its worstAnd that's what really hurtsA dark thought got there firstI drove up the hill just to say goodbyeBut all I found was a "For Sale" signPut my hand on the gate and there's tears in my eyesAnd all that's been left since the minute you diedAre the chandeliers in the trees, ceramic beesBut now they're just covered in leaves
