Song lyrics Long Goodbyes by Camel

Down by the lake
a warm afternoon
breezes carry children's balloons.
Once upon a time,
not long ago,
she lived in a house by the grove.
And she recalls the day,
when she left home...

Long goodbyes,
make me so sad.
I have to leave right now.
And though I hate to go,
I know it's for the better.
Long goodbyes,
make me so sad.
Forgive my leaving now.
You know I'll miss you so
and days we spent together.

Long in the day
moon on the rise
she sighs with a smile in her eyes.
In the park,
it's late after all,
she sits and stares at the wall.
And she recalls the day,
when she left home...

Long goodbyes,
make me so sad.
I have to leave right now.
And though I hate to go,
I know it's for the better.
Long goodbyes,
make me so sad.
Forgive my leaving now.
You know I'll miss you so
and days we spent together.
