A Long Goodbye

Erasure

In these days of mine for keeps I'm trying to hold on

Suddenly you're all out of reach and everything goes wrong

What we say and what we do are entirely different things

Meaning lost straight through the roof

That's not how it should be



Easy like a bird

I ride the breeze

My mind is falling



You're so ordinary

You're my sanctuary in the morning, darling

New sensation, love vibration

Heart to heart and a long goodbye

You go your way and I'll go my way

Life is truer than fiction

In this crazy land of milk and honey

Life is just an illusion



I just don't know what to believe in

If the truth be known

Suffering from soul fatigue

Weathering the storm



What we say and what we do are entirely different things

Whispered voices fill the room

That's not how it should be



Swaying like a tree

I feel the sky

Somebody calling



You're so ordinary

Be my sanctuary in the morning, darling

New sensation, love vibration

Heart to heart and a dumb goodbye

You go your way and I'll go my way

Life is truer than fiction

In this crazy mixed up world of honey

Life is just an illusion, darling

[Illusion, darling...]

[You're so ordinary...]

[You're so...]

[You're so ordinary...]



Easy like a bird

I ride the breeze

My mind is falling



You're so ordinary

Be my sanctuary in the morning, darling

New sensation, love vibration

Heart to heart and a long goodbye

You go your way, I'll go my way

Life is truer than fiction

In this crazy mixed up world of honey

Life is just an illusion



You're so ordinary, sanctuary

Be my one in the morning, darling

New sensation, love vibration

Heart to heart and a dumb goodbye

You go your way and I'll go my way

Life is truer than fiction

In this crazy mixed up world of honey

Life is just an illusion



You're so ordinary, sanctuary
