Strap on your safety belt
Blazing in the sky
Thinking of nothing
No disguise
What happened to the one
The one you thought you knew
Did he just take away
What is missing in you
Let him run
Till he sees what he has done
Let him go on
Having all his fun
Mmm let him run
Take off your rocket shoes
And the straps from your wings
Wishing for miracles
Hear the young boys sing
What will you say to him
When he's back at your door
Got no time for users
I don't need you anymore
Let him run
Till he sees what he has done
Let him go on
Having all his fun
Let him cry
See the tears fall from his eyes
Let him run
Run run run run run
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
So long
