Mr Mingo

Centuries have passed
 And even though I want it to I know that it won't last
 It was different to me before
 The good got up and went when you went out the door
 So I said goodbye
 Even though I know I'll die
 I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
 It's not important to me now
 At least that's what I tell myself when I am feeling down
 I'm not in love enough to stay
 But I'm in love enough to know that I should go away
 So I said goodbye
 Even though I know I'll die
 I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
 My father said goodbye to Mr. M-I-N-G-O
