Richard Wright Pink's Song

Quiet, smiling friend of mine

Thrown into our lives

You gave everything you could

Saw through our disguise

I had to stay I could not leave

Give me time so I can breathe

Give me time to be at ease

Patiently, you watched us play

Parts you'd seen before

Even then, we sometimes asked

What you keep us for

Caught between the tangled web

You helped set us free

Sadly, then, you lost yourself

So you had to leave

And I must go, be on my way

Let me go, I can not stay

Let me go, I must not stay

And I must go, be on my way

Let me go, I cannot stay

Let me go, I must not stay
