Lyrics
Goodbye To Beauty
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.
On the marble street
A procession spills in
At the White Sea wall
Waves crash and crash again
Darkness shining
Then disappearing
Day follows night, night follows day
Comes like a stranger then it drifts away
Day follows night, night follows day
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
In a mansion above
The ceremony begins
On a bandstand below
The conductor laments
The dogs are whining
Something's changing
Day follows night, night follows day
Makes like a friend before it slips away
Day follows night, night follows day
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
Goodbye
Goodbye to beauty
