Véronique Sanson - Say My Last Goodbye lyrics

I woke up from a bitter sleep
Only to find the dawn
And all the sympathetic lies
That I carried inside
And my life would come around and go
Looked up and watched the sun
Slowly begin to rise
I put the needle down on the record player
Then I knew that I’d made up my mind

Gotta say my last goodbye
In the morning I’ll be gone
You see I’m off to live my life
Cause it’s all I can live on
And if I see you down the line
We’ll count the miles that we put on
Cause it’s all I can live on

Hit hard with a fever
I got nothing to lose but you
Leaving you behind was the last
Thing on my mind
Don’t you ever think I’m a fool
Deep down, I can feel the pain
Of leaving you all behind
The only thing that would ever come close
Would be a good look into your eyes

I’ve gotta say my last goodbye
In the morning I’ll be gone
You see I’m off to live my life
Cause it’s all I can live on
And if I see you down the line
We’ll count the miles that we put on
Cause it’s all I can live on

And high… from the rush
Forgive me if I seem blind
To anyone who might hold a grudge
For leaving them behind
Maybe one day down the road
I’ll see you on the other side
And when that day comes
You might just know why

Say my last goodbye
In the morning I’ll be gone
You see I’m off to live my life
Cause it’s all I can live on
And if I see you down the line
We’ll count the miles that we put on

I’ve gotta say my last goodbye
In the morning I’ll be gone
You see I’m off to live my life
Cause it’s all I can live on
And if I see you down the line
We’ll count the miles that we put on
Cause it’s all I can live on
In the morning I’ll be gone
Cause it’s all I can live on
