lyrics

i am singing this song
it is time it was sung
been putting it off for a while

but it hard by now
as the truth is so clear
that i cry when i seeing you smile

so goodbye so long
the road calls me dear
and your tears will not blind me anymore
and farewell to the girl with the sun in the eys
so i will kiss you and i will be gone

and every time that i try
to tell you that we
that we lost some magic we had at the start

and i will weep my heart
when i looking your eyes
and i search once more for the spark

so goodbye so long
the road calls me dear
and your tears will not blind me anymore
and farewell to the girl with the sun in the eys
so i will kiss you and i will be gone

i can see by your eyes it is time now to go
so i leave you to cry in the rain

though i held in my hand
the key to all joy
but honey my heart is not born to be tamed

so goodbye so long
the road calls me dear
and your tears will not blind me anymore
and farewell to the girl with the sun in the eys
so i will kiss you and i will be gone
