[Verse 1]
Last Tuesday, when I was a child and my mother came home from the hospital
She seemed to not want me to leave her, but somebody needed to take the dog outside
I never returned from the front yard where I stood for a lifetime, sinking into the lawn
[Chorus]
And who would know that it would be the last time?
Who could know?
Ooh, everybody knows
That it's often the last time
Ooh, everybody knows
That everyday is always the last day
It is that day
[Verse 2]
This Tuesday, I spoke to my father who asked me how I often did I walk the dog
I hadn't the heart to tell him he'd been dead for longer than he'd been alive
Nobody knows me when I go back to my old street
The grass has grown over what remains of the rope
[Outro]
Ooh, everybody knows
That what is gone is gone, all-all-always
