I've been wondering what to do
I'd give anything to talk to you
I've been thinking some peaceful thoughts
Open windows and hear four knotsMichael, I've been a sad case
Michael, I've been a sad caseWhen St. Louis turns off its lights
I will talk to you through the night
We won't break anybody's backs
Let's just keep our eyes on the cracks
Michael, I've been a sad case
Michael, I've been a sad caseIt takes a lot of time
And it takes a little bit of cryin'
To get your mind off
It takes a lot of time
And it takes a little bit of cryin'
To get your mind offI've been walking past the place
In West Florence, an avenue
None of them remember me
And none of them remember youOne thing at a time goes
Through my mind
One thing at a time goes
Alright
It takes a lot of time
And it takes a little bit of cryin'
To get your mind off
It takes a lot of time
And it takes a little bit of cryin'
To get your mind offMichael, I've been a sad case
Michael, I've been a sad case
