As the sun hides his head

For another night's rest

And the wind sings

His same old song

And you on the edge

Never close, never far

Always there when I needed a friend

Yet 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

Just 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

Now it's hard

Leaving all this behind me now

Like a schoolboy so lost

Never found until now

And all this could be

Just a dream so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye

Yet it's hard

Living life on this memory-go-round

Always up, always down

Turning 'round and 'round and 'round

And all this could be

Just a dream so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye

And all this could be

Just a dream so it seems

I was never much good at goodbye

Goodbye
