Long Goodbye Songtext
von New Model Army

Holed up in your little room, we talk for hour on empty hour
Pacing up and down between the walls that we have built ourselves

No more with the long goodbye
Can′t stand another tear
Won't wait for the bell to toll
Straight on for the days ahead
Straight on for the days ahead

You act as drowning, letting go the fingers one by one
Come on, there′s life beyond the tomb that we have built ourselves


No more with the long goodbye
Can't stand another tear
Won't wait for the bell to toll
Straight on for the days ahead
Straight on for the days ahead

We don′t even dare to look each other in the eyes
Or say whatever′s on our minds
These crushing moments show the kind of people we've become
Seal betrayal with a kiss and let it all be over, finished, done
Done
Done

It feels so good to kill the thing that stood between the truth and I
Make it fast and make it clean and let the blood run down

No more with the long goodbye
Can′t stand another tear
Won't wait for the bell to toll
Straight on for the days ahead
Straight on for the days ahead


Straight on for the days ahead
