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 it's hard living life   On this memory-go-round   Always up, always down   Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round      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 it'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 it's hard   Living life on this memory-go round   Always up, always down   Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round      And all this could be   Such a dream, so it seems   I was never much good at goodbye      And all this could be   Such a dream, so it seems   I was never much good at goodbye      Goodbye   Goodbye
