Always Goodbye

«Always goodbye,» wrote the lover on watery pages
Sinking somewhere in the dark
«Always goodbye,» said the footprints of hope
That Leonard Bast made
Did his heart melt or break?
Just give me more
Just give me more, dear
I needed more
'Cause I’ve been feeling void-fear
Ah oh, yeah
Love may outlast the heart that filled that lovely creature
But this furniture may outlast love
So when the blackbird in his shoebox died
I left him there, found the wine
Shut the garage door and went back inside
Nameless men becoming ageless
Nature abhors an empty sky
He gave his watch to his hairdresser
And spent his final afternoon
With Steinbeck in the sunshine
Just give me more
Just give me more, dear
I needed more
'Cause I’ve been feeling void-fear
Ah oh, yeah
Oh-oh, ah yeah
Oh-oh, ah yeah
Oh-oh, ah yeah
Oh-oh, ah yeah
Just give me more
Just give me more, dear
I needed more
'Cause I’ve been feeling void-fear
Ah oh, yeah
