Goodbye Lyrics

Artist: Night Ranger
Album: 7 Wishes

As the sun hides its head
Another nights rest
And the wind sings
Its same old song

And you on the edge
Never close, never far
Always there when I needed a friend

But itâ‚¬â„¢s hard living life
On this memory-go-round
Always up, always down
Spinning â‚¬Ëœround and â‚¬Ëœround and â‚¬Ëœround

And all this could be
Such a dream, so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye

There once was a time
Never far from my mind
On the beach, on the 4th of July

I remember the sand
How you held out your hand
And we touched for what seemed a lifetime

But itâ‚¬â„¢s hard
Leaving all this behind me now
Like a schoolboy so lost
Never found until now

And all this could be
Such a dream, so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye

And itâ‚¬â„¢s hard
Living life on this memory-go round
Always up, always down
Spinning â‚¬Ëœround and â‚¬Ëœround and â‚¬Ëœround

And all this could be
Such a dream, so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye
(x2)

Goodbye (x2)

Comments/Interpretations
by Sonny Kane on 9/30/2008 1:11am Even though the drummer sang the song, it was written by Jack Blades as a healing process for himself. His brother died of a drug overdose and he was never able to say goodbye. Even before I knew what this song was about I thought it was one of the best songs ever written. You could critique these lyrics for as long as you want and find something more each time, but that does not change the fact that they are beautiful. This song should go down with the best of all Beatles, Eagles, Zeppelin, and any other musical jaugernaut's tunes. Goodbye, one of the best songs ever written.
by Rand Marshall on 11/1/2008 5:28pm Sonny, You are absolutely right. In my humble opinion its is the best song ever written.
by Sandy Morgan on 12/8/2008 3:49pm This is my all-time fav song...it never gets old. I love the guitar...beautiful. And the lyrics are amazing.
by chris on 3/23/2009 7:11pm Always loved this song. Stuck in my mind for 20-plus years now. Should have been a much bigger hit for them. I didn't know the story behind it; very sad.
by RC on 8/28/2009 5:35pm One of my favorites songs of the 80's. Now understanding the meaning of the song, the song is a lot more
by piecesofapril62 on 9/6/2009 2:28am My heart is breaking right now...from being in love with someone who does not feel the same. Strange when we put it on the line finally tonight this song was playing in the background. Right now the pain in almost unbearable...
