1000 Goodbyes — текст песни (captain tractor)

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
