The Long Goodbye

I give you everything 'Til 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 And in these times I write about forgiveness In the sand and I hope and pray That it's here to stay 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? That's why in these times I Write about forgiveness in the sand And I hope and pray that it's here to stay 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 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 I give you everything I gave you everything
