lyrics

Goodbye, you foolish dreams
All about seeking fortune and fame
too bad you never came true.
So long, delusions of grandeur
sure hard to keep when you’re feeling poor
tell me, what more can I do?

See, I don't want to be frustrated for the rest of my days
I don't want to be frustrated for the rest of my days
Don't want to be frustrated for the rest of my days
What else can I do?
But bid adieu?

So long, to long lost love
it’s no longer you I’ll be dreaming of
though I always think of you fondly
And to old friends I no longer know:
How come we both let a good thing go?
It’ll always be beyond me.

I just don’t want to be heartbroken for the rest of my days
I don’t want to be heartbroken for the rest of my days
Don’t want to be heartbroken for the rest of my days
What else can I do?
But bid adieu?

So go on, pastures of green
the likes of which I never seen
though I could always hear you calling
Still at night, just to cope
I turn my head to the sky and hope
that I can catch a star that’s falling.

I just don’t want to be disappointed for the rest of my days
I don’t want to be disappointed for the rest of my days
Don’t want to be disappointed for the rest of my days
What else can I do?
But bid adieu?
