Last Salutation Lyrics

Randy Coleman Last Salutation

another cause to make it go away
another false alarm and so you say
we walked the mile and it was worth the while
write your name and put it on my cast
make sure the ink is permanent and will last
if you think about it we can live without it

sometimes I miss the simple lies
when you're caught up in the compromise
but at least we never had to say goodbye (, goodbye)
another casualty is in my head
you found another way to get it back instead
you went around it and then you finally found it

sometimes I miss the simple lies
when you're caught up in the compromise
but at least we never had to say goodbye
so go and tell my high school friends
I have no hold no deep regrets
I just never thought that we'd ever say goodbye (,
goodbye)

another cause to make it go away
another false alarm and so you say
write your name and put it on my cast
make sure the ink is permanent and will last
we walked the mile and it was worth the while
sometimes I miss the simple lies
when you're caught up in the compromise
but at least we never had to say goodbye
so go and tell my high school friends
There is no hold no deep regrets
I just never thought that we'd ever say goodbye

so let this be my last salutation
and let this be my first vindication
if I believe it
then I can leave it ( 2x)
and I will leave it.
