Long Wave Goodbye Songtext
von Molly Johnson feat. Stéphane Grappelli

I made a promise to myself
That I would sooner rot in hell
Than spend another moment with you
I feel that time is slipping by
And if I felt it was worth a try
Then maybe baby, I would cry
Just one more sad sigh

I have sipped the sweetest wine
But this one tastes just past its prime
So go on, take the long wave goodbye
Doctor′s bills are piling sky high
While I try to reason with why
I haven't taken the long wave goodbye


I had a chance weeks ago
To tell you baby to hit the road
But one look at me
With your sad blue eyes
Well I hate to see a grown man cry

Ya gotta go on, pack your things
′Cause I'm cutting all your strings
And I'm waving the long wave goodbye

The train is barrelling down the track
Whistle′s blowing, your bags are packed
Hurry now, don′t be late
'Cause that would be your last mistake
Hill of beans don′t count for much
Forget to write, don't keep in touch
′Cause I'm waving the long wave goodbye

You′re taking the long wave goodbye
Goodbye
Bye bye, baby, goodbye
Train's coming down the track
You're taking the long wave goodbye
