Sink with the tide   Rescue me if you like   I'll be leaving it all up to you   Think how we tried   It's o.k. to be lied to    As long as it's only by you      People say to me it's best that we've parted   'Cause you know I'm better alone   Don't explain to me how you're so broken hearted   I'm too busy mending my own      Ending each night with such honest goodbyes   Such honest goodbyes for the last time   Honest goodbyes only work once or twice   They work once or twice   Then the rest must be lies      Late ever night the colours fade from the sky   And the music is gone from the moon   Standing in line for what used to be mine   What use is the rhyme with no tune      People say to me it's best that we've parted   And nothing is carved out in stone   It's such a shame how we're back where we started   It's late now and time that we go      Ending each night with such honest goodbyes   Such honest goodbyes for the last time   Honest goodbyes only work once or twice   They work once or twice   Then the rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies   The rest must be lies
