strange goodbye

i used to walk in a big black cloud

you came along and you led me out

a nest of demons

bled on my chest

you picked me up and you laid them to rest

it's a pain to be sure

we were aiming so high

it's so strange to be sayin' goodbye

we saw the world from an automobile

saw the best views over ten thousand meals

funny how an evening turns into years

funny how were laughing through all of these tears

it's a pain to be sure

we were aiming so high

it's so strange to be sayin' goodbye

oh my darlin'

should we have one more dance

a prayer to the rain gods to give one more chance

the water will cleanse as we spin on the plain

take us to the ocean to find love again

it's a pain to be sure

we were aiming so high

it's so strange to be sayin' goodbye

it's a pain that endures

we sure gave it a try

it's so strange to be saying goodbye
