Song information
Artist: Tom Waits Album: Closing Time
Lyrics
I'm singing this song, it's time it was sung I've been putting it off for a while But it's harder by now, 'cause the truth is so clear That I cry when I'm seeing you smile So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
Every time that I tried to tell That we'd lost the magic we had at the start I would weep my heart when I looked in your eyes And I searched once again for the spark So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
I can see by your eyes, it's time now to go So I'll leave you to cry in the rain Though I held in my hand, the key to all joy Honey my heart was not born to be tamed So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
