Marshall Crenshaw Glad Goodbye
(m. crenshaw)
Our road, leads to another road, that ends at another road
That's long and wide
And I've been, waiting for the day to come
Everything's ready to go, waiting outside
I'm gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
It's way past time for a second thought
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
A few miles away from this place and time is what I want
We're going with the changing of the season
The ground is frozen and the sky is grey
It always got me in the wintertime
That desolate feeling that wouldn't stay away
We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
I won't be here next time the blues comes around
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
Where the sunlight still remembers how to shine is where I'm bound
Got no rest last night wondering where the years have gone
Time never will stop and wait, well you can't be left to waste
And you know you've got to go, you gotta do it when you know
That what you thought you'd always loved
Is one you're better off being rid of
We're going with the changing of the season
Without much sadness, without much fear
What waits over the horizon is not like anything we'll ever find here
We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
It's way past time for a second thought
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
A few miles away is what I want
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
I won't be here
We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
It's way past time
