The Long Goodbye

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I give you everything Till songs of freedom come and take me for a little ride Walkin' by in my lonely dreams You say you feel forgotten, well, I'm sorry I haven't waken [Chorus] And in these times, I Write about forgiveness in the sand And I hope and pray that it's here to stay [Verse 2] And there's a song I wrote for those who would like to sing But I still play alone on these old heartstrings 'Cause how we tried and tried to make that perfect harmony Wasn't it a shame, we never heard the same [Chorus] That's why in these times, I Write about forgiveness in the sand And I hope and I pray that it's here to stay [Bridge] So when those birds fly south in the winter, I have to go Baby, please don't cry It's the end of our long goodbye [Chorus] And in these times, I Write about forgiveness in the sand And I hope and pray that it's here to stay It's alright, it's okay, it's here to stay [Outro] I give you everything And I gave you everything
