lyrics

The Longest Of Goodbyes

We could fly to Tokyo
Just to catch the sunrise
And we could drive to Mexico
Or just until your old Chevy dies
Is this life we know—this status quo
Just laziness and lies?

Have I been wearing someone else’s clothes?
Have I been living someone else’s life?
Someone else’s rainbow,
Someone else’s pot of gold
And someone else’s prize?
Are these days of cold ice wine and roses
Just a bed of thorns disguised?
Just a song and dance that we compose
Of short and sweet hellos
And the longest of goodbyes?

Nights collapse like dominos
Full moons in blackened skies
Days are dipped in vertigo
And drunken, spinning highs and lows
Blinded by mood indigo
And two pairs of deep, blue eyes

(chorus)

Winter’s so far from springtime
And summer’s grown cold
Are we still living or just growing old?

(chorus)

Tuning: C G D G G Bb
