The Long Goodbye

A smile could crack this angry face
 The endless days, the endless wait
 As tension fills up the empty space
 I wait in vain and fade away, away, away
 Fade away, away, away
 I fade away, away, away
 No you never know what you got until it's gone
 (It's wasted, it's wasted)
 And when it's gone then you know it's gone forever
 When you take the long goodbye
 No-one here ever stays they all move on
 (It's wasted, it's wasted)
 And when we're gone then you know we're gone forever
 When you take the long goodbye
 ♪
 And as the flowers slowly die
 We find new ways of wasting time
 The question is what's left to try
 I watch the rain and fade away, away, away
 Fade away, away, away
 I fade away, away, away
 No you never know what you got until it's gone
 (It's wasted, it's wasted)
 And when it's gone then you know it's gone forever
 When you take the long goodbye
 No-one here ever stays they all move on
 (It's wasted, it's wasted)
 And when we're gone then you know we're gone forever
 When you take the long goodbye
