Bret McKenzie - America Goodbye lyrics

You told me walk out of the room
There is nothing left to say
My heart begins to tremble
Oh, as I watch you walk away
We've been dancing ’round the truth
The dream would never end
When it's over and we knew
Only so long to pretend

America, goodbye
I'm gonna miss those big brown eyes
Oh, America, goodbye baby, it’s okay to cry

When I see you in the street
I try to understand how the glory of it all
Slipped between our hands
All the things I wished I'd said
The things I could have done
Like a fool, I stood and starеd
Let my whole world come undonе

America, goodbye
I'm gonna miss those big brown eyes
Oh, America, goodbye baby, it's okay to cry

We're working every day
We're slipping through the cracks
We're searching for the way
But we keep on looking back

Oh, all the things I could have done
To save our love, but we are done
Oh, all the things I could have done
To save our love, but we are done
Oh, America, goodbye
(Oh, all the things I could have done)
I'm gonna miss those big brown eyes
(To save our love, but we are done)
Oh, America, goodbye
(Oh, all the things I could have done)
Baby, it’s okay to cry
(To save our love, but we are done)
We had a good old time
