Tom Waits — Old Shoes

Im singin this song, 'cause its time it was sung Ive been puttin it off for a while 'Cause its harder by now, and the truth is so clear That Im cryin when Im seein you smile So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then Ill be gone And every time that I tried to tell you that wed Lost the magic we had at the start I would weep in my heart when I looked in your eyes And Id search once again for the spark So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then Ill be gone For you know, that theres somethin callin me, dear And by morning Im sure to be gone For Im older than you, and you know oh so well That our time for the love was this song So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then Ill be gone Now I can see by your eyes, that its time for to go So Ill leave you cryin in the rain Though I held in my hand, the key to all joy Honey, my heart was not born to be tamed And goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear And your tears cannot bind me anymore And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes Can I kiss you, and then Ill be gone Can I kiss you, and then Ill be gone
