Lyrics
Wave Goodnight To Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I used to walk down to the docks in spring
And drink Tallboys on the rocks by the water
Under the watchful eye of Day-Glo cranes
That spread like floods from corner to corner
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
Yeah, ignorance is bliss until the day
The things you ignored all come into focus
And those conveniences and cavities
That can't get filled 'cause you didn't notice
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Wave goodnight to the sleepless city too tired to fight
They're pushing you out in the name of progress
Selling your memories to the tourists
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years
Yelling: Come on
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Come on, come on get out of here
Wave goodnight to me
