Текст песни Days of Farewell - John Mellencamp

Be careful... How you walk.
These days are evil... Look how you talk.
I hear... There are people that are listening.
This mystery... Is up to you
So you be careful... What you do
I know... There are people who are wondering
These are the days of farewell
Halfway undecided
That's our peace
That's our peace
Be careful... The friends you keep
He might not really... Be your friend
He belongs... To the wishing and the wandering
Be careful... Too much at stake
You don't want ever... To be wronged
Don't you ever... Let the dirty business make you clean
These are the days of farewell
Halfway undecided
That's our peace
Amen
Amen
Glory be to God
I will bless the Lord at all times
His words shall continually be in my mouth with praise
For I am here today 'cause He said that I would live
There's no reason why HIV shouldn't have missed my daughter and my life
But it did
Through the eyes of God,
He saw fit for me to be here
I will praise the Lord at all times
As we live in the last days
The Devil will always be up under my feet
And I will praise his name
Hallelujah
Don't you pretend... To be something
That you are not... Hear me my friend
I'll tell you what... I know it will only sicken you
Let us be grateful... For what you've got
Help me to know... What I am not
Oh my friend... There are people who are wondering
These are the days of farewell
It's undecided It's undecided
Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend
My friend My friend My friend
It's undecided
Too much Too much Too Much
Too much at stake for you and me
