As the sun hides its head

For Another night rest

And the wind sings

Its same old song



And you on the edge

Never close, never far

Always there when I needed a friend



But it's hard living life

On this memory-go-round

Always up, always down

Spinning ‘round and ‘round and ‘round



And all this could be

Such a dream, so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye



There once was a time

Never far from my mind

On the beach, on the 4th of July



I remember the sand

How you held out your hand

And we touched for what seemed a lifetime



But it's hard

Leaving all this behind me now

Like a schoolboy so lost

Never found until now



And all this could be

Such a dream, so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye



And it's hard

Living life on this memory-go round

Always up, always down

Spinning ‘round and ‘round and ‘round



And all this could be

Such a dream, so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye

Goodbye (x2)
