1000 Goodbyes Lyrics

I've spent all my life just carrying on

And for every right thing I've done ten have been wrong

It's not that I'm bragging for the sake of a song

But life looks much better in perspective

And your eyes look at me from near and from far

Ten thousand miles and you're still where you are

Another brass rail in another old bar

I'm better at dreaming than living

REFRAIN:

For every hello there's a thousand good byes

And leaving is harder when I look in your eyes

You've got to believe me I'm not telling lies

That for every hello there's a thousand good byes

The years slip away like the spring melts the snow

And I'm older and wiser than you'll ever know

And if you believe that then it's time I should go

'Cause I'm just as confused and more twisted

And things keep on changing for better or worse

And rhymes just get harder with every new verse

And to say that I love you sounds way too perverse

'Cause I'm getting on that bus in the morning

REFRAIN

I could give it all to you

But I can't control the things that I do

And I don't know what to say

'Cause the sun's coming up and I know I can't stay

REFRAIN (x2)

So goodbye

And goodbye

Yeah goodbye
