lyrics

Farewell Again

Farewell Again
May this put a stop to saying this my friend
Farewell Again
May the story cease its looping and just end
Farewell again

Not one more tear
Let the water cycle be the sea and clouds
not one more tear
tell the great rain maker, I want out
I want out

Now there’s a man
who cannot stand
to see the closing curtains of the act descend
and goes at it ever harder
pulls them back again
back again

not again
what’s a promise ever meant to do
not again
but bind us to a dream
we wish were true
not again

For he’s a man...

He cannot change
wisdom’s loaded in this sad refrain
he cannot change
who will hold this cue card when I fail
I will not fail
I will put a stop to saying this my friends
the story ceased its looping and just ends
Farewell again
