In the morning
Dressed in the clothes
Your momma left out for you
The night before
You'd come throwing
Stones at the roof
'Til I'd creep down the stairs and unlock the door
Restless and free, man
We had a one-track mind for trouble
All we could find, all we could find
Spellbound and dreaming
At the sundown without blinking
'Til we'd go blind, we'd go blind
So long, but not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long but not gooodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
In the evening with the beat-down day behind
We'd catch a ride on into town
Hell-bound and bleeding
Our words and fists were flying
We were glory bound, we were glory bound
Holes in your jeans, man
You've got a punch-drunk poet's heart
Hiding in the walls of your skin
You'd best be leaving, got a brand-new pair of shoes
Needs breaking in, breaking in
So long, but not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
Not goodbye
The howls of autumn echo across the lake
And up your spine into the sky
Some forgotten
Truth you used to own
Comes back to mind, comes back to mind
So long, but not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
Ooh, not goodbye
So long, but not goodbye
Not goodbye
Not goodbye
