Lyrics

Well I'm singing this song, cause it's time it was sung
I've been putting it off for a while
Cause it's harder by now, and the truth is so clear
That I am crying when I'm seeing you smile
So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear
And your tears cannot bind me anymore
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone

And every time that I tried to tell you
That we'd lost the magic we had at the start
I would weep my heart when I looked in your eyes
And I searched once again for the spark
So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear
And your tears cannot bind me anymore
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone

Oh you know that there's something calling me dear
And by morning, I'm sure to be gone
For I'm older than you and you know so well
That our time for to love was a song
So goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear
And your tears cannot bind me anymore
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone

Now I can see by your eyes, it's time now to go
So I'll leave you crying in the rain
Though I held in my hand, the key to all joy
Honey my heart was not born to be tamed
And goodbye, so long, the road calls me dear
And your tears cannot bind me anymore
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
Can I kiss you, and then I'll be gone
