Won’t you take my cane and hold my hand You’re holding on to all I have Just a basket full of memories And I am losing more each day it seems But if I can make it to the street I’ll steal a car or a bike Whatever there is to steal And it might get cold I just don’t care I’m going till I’m getting there I’ll ride my steed all through this town Till I......... Have looked Till I have found Your peaceful memory Won’t you return to me Won’t you return to me
