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
