The Long Goodbye

And then I stole this car
And headed for Mexico
There was blood on the sunset
When they wouldn't let me go
No, no, no, for a while
It was you playing with my mind
For a while
Now's the time for a long goodbye

Some call it fate
Some call it a roll of the dice
In the end, no-one really knows
No, no, no, for a while
It was you rambling in my mind
For a while
Now's the time for a long goodbye

Tired of cold mornings
Stretching on empty roads
Lit up by dead suns
Hanging up above
Catching fires on the moon
I dream of you, my love

Almost made it there
Half a mile at most
If it wasn't for the bullets
Spat by a .44
No, no, no, for a while
It's been you burning in my mind
For a while
Now's the time for a long goodbye
Now's the time for a long goodbye
