Don't wait for me
'Cause I'll be running late
By the flowers upon my grave
Don't wait for me
'Cause I'll be coming home
Don't wait for me
Long by the telephone

Chorus:

'Cause I'm wild running through the hills
And my eyes are wondering how you feel
And the miles upon miles keep falling from the sky
Don't wait for me
When the flowers die

Don't wait for me
I have many miles to go
Don't wait for me
I have nothing left to show
Don't wait for me
Wonderin' what is wrong
Don't wait for me
I'll catch up at the break of dawn

Chorus

Don't wait for me
Sleepin' in the summer sun
Don't wait for me
With my pillow lies my gun
Don't wait for me
I'm gonna finish last
Don't wait for me
I'm mending fences of my past

Chorus

Don't wait for me
When the flowers die
