Disappearing

I can hear a whistle blowing

That's my only way of knowing

Somewhere in the distance

There is probably a train

I can hear a church bell ring

That church bell doesn't mean a thing

What I've been hearing lately

I would like you to explain

The first that I heard and it never occurred

To me what I'd be hearing

The last of me that you're likely to see

You'll see that I am disappearing

I listened now with opened eyes

I heard half hearted alibis

There may have been a few things

That I might have said myself

I could hear the whistle blowing

I wonder where that train is going

I'm sure before it gets to there

That I'll be somewhere else

The first that I heard and it never occurred

To me what I'd be hearing

The last of me that you're likely to see

You'll see that I am disappearing

I've heard all of it all before

The bells the whistles and I'm sure

That it won't be the last time

That I hear the church or train

There's a first for almost everything

Whistles blow and bells will ring

This could be the last time

And I won't be back again

The first that I heard and it never occurred

To me what I'd be hearing

The last of me that you're likely to see

You'll see that I am disappearing

The first that I heard and it never occurred

To me what I'd be hearing

The last of me that you're likely to see

You'll see that I am disappearing
