The Long Goodbye
I did everything right
Even closed my eyes
And I dreamed a precious lie
Before the long goodbye
Took your hand in mine
Told you about those times
When everything was alright
Before the long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And you're standing at the edge
And if this life's so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
I was by your side
Wiped the tears from your eyes
And I let you cry your cry
Before the long goodbye
Stayed up all night
Talking about those times
When we both were satisfied
Before the long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And they echo through the air
And if it's all so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And they echo through my brain
If it's all so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
And the words they come out strained
Then you're standing at the edge
If this life's so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
That long goodbye
The long goodbye
Even closed my eyes
And I dreamed a precious lie
Before the long goodbye
Took your hand in mine
Told you about those times
When everything was alright
Before the long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And you're standing at the edge
And if this life's so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
I was by your side
Wiped the tears from your eyes
And I let you cry your cry
Before the long goodbye
Stayed up all night
Talking about those times
When we both were satisfied
Before the long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And they echo through the air
And if it's all so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
And the words they come out strained
And they echo through my brain
If it's all so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
And the words they come out strained
Then you're standing at the edge
If this life's so simple
Then why's it so hard to say
That long goodbye
That long goodbye
The long goodbye
