Cassandra Wilson


A day in the life of a fool
A sad and a long lonely day
I walk the avenue and hope I'll run into
The welcome sight of you coming my way

I stop just across from your door
But you're never home any more
So back to my room
And there in the gloom I cry
Tears of goodbye

So back to my room
And there in the gloom I cry
Tears of good bye
