The greatest man
I never knew

Lived just down

The hall
And every day
We said hello

Buf never touched
At all
He was in his paper
I was in my room

How was I to know
He thought I

Hung the moon
The greatest man
I never knew

Come home late
Every night
He never had
Too much 10 say

Too much was

On his mind
I never really
Knew him

Oh and now it
Seems so sad
Everything

He gave to us

Took all he had
Then the days

Turned info yea rs

And the memories

To block and white
He grew cold like
An old winter wind

Blowing across

My life
The greatest words
I never heard

I guess I'll
Never hear
The man I 1hough1
Could never die

S'been dead

AI most o yea r
Oh he was good

At business

Buf there was
Business left to do
He never said
He loved me

Guess he thought
I knew
