First To Say Goodbye
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 might be young, or so I’m told
So why do I feel 85?
I should get up, I should get down
I should go out and make all my friends so proud
But the closer I am to midnight
The further I get from this nocturnal life
I will never get older than I am on the inside
When the party gets going wild
I am the first to say goodnight
I will never get older than I am on the inside
When the party gets going wild
I am the first to say goodnight
And as the sailor needs the sea
That is how my bed will crave for me
I will go down with the sun
And that is when the owls and bats have just begun
Can feel the room is getting loud
And that is when the music’s turning up
A million dancing endorphins
While I am only running to catch a dream
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Goodnight, goodnight
I am sleeping, hibernating, separating me from this nocturnal life …
Chorus
Ooohh … Drift into my secret life
Aaah … Hush my baby
Ooohh … Drift into my secret life
Aaah … Hush my baby
Sshhh …
