 I drink in the tears of the lovers at the station
As they part I watch them from above
Is everyone I love turning into a stranger?
Are these strangers all becoming the ones I love?
Goodbye forever once again
Goodbye forever once again
I'm standing in the rain with my lovers and my friends
Singing goodbye forever, once again
You and I made love between the train tracks and the graveyard
For just a couple hours, you were mine
Now I watch the sky, it helps me forget your face
So I can touch your lips again for the first time
Goodbye forever once again
Goodbye forever once again
I'm standing in the rain with my lovers and my friends
Singing goodbye forever, once again
I keep all the embraces that once kept me warm
In a scrapbook I flip through sometimes
I get drunk on nostalgia
And tell myself this life's been good
But so many pages are wrinkled and worn
The faces are fading away
Just snapshots of graceful decay
And I don't know if I'm holding on to the things I should
The bent trunk of a tree, white flowers in the meadow
The path of each leaf dancing in the wind
Every star you see, each ripple in the river
Whispers goodbye forever, once again
Goodbye forever once again
Goodbye forever once again
I'm standing in the rain with my lovers and my friends
Singing goodbye forever, once again
We keep singing the refrain
Even though the song will end
Goodbye forever once again
