Michael Franti & Spearhead - Say Goodbye Lyrics






I wasn't born yesterday, but I remember the way things used to be, used to be.
I know that it was never perfect but we did not have the problems that we see, we see.
Tell me why, tell me why, what is the reason people have to die, tonight.
I could tell you all a lie, but I wish I didn't have to say goodbye, goodbye.

Say goodbye. [x5]

I keep hearin' more and more that they're shootin' teenagers in the street, oh no.
Sendin' children off to war, turned into fathers their children would never meet.
My generation with every single nation is calling out, falling down.
I could tell you all a lie, but I wish I didn't have to say goodbye, goodbye.

Say goodbye. [x5]

And all around the world you can hear them calling out, calling out and, sayin'.
I wasn't born yesterday, but I remember the way things used to be, used to be.
And I wish that I could lie, because a mother shouldn't have to say goodbye.

Say goodbye. [x5]

  94. H.... M....

    I say hey, I'll be gone today
    But I'll be back all around the way
    It seems like everywhere I go
    The more I see, the less I know
    But I know one thing
    That I love you (baby girl)
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I've been a lot of places all around the way
    I've seen a lot of joy and I've seen a lot of pain
    But I don't want to write a love song for the world
    I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl
    Junkies on the corner always calling my name
    And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games
    When I saw you getting down, well, I hope it was you
    And when I look into your eyes I knew it was true
    I say hey, I'll be gone today
    But I'll be back all around the way
    It seems like everywhere I go
    The more I see, the less I know
    But I know one thing
    That I love you (baby girl)
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    Now I'm not a highly metaphysical man
    But I know when the stars are aligned you can
    Bump into a person in the middle of the road
    Look into their eyes and you suddenly know
    Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
    Dancing in the night in the middle of June
    My momma told me don't lose you
    'Cause the best luck I had was you
    I say hey, I'll be gone today
    But I'll be back all around the way
    It seems like everywhere I go
    The more I see, the less I know
    But I know one thing
    That I love you (baby girl)
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    And I say, rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
    I say, hey momma, hey momma, close to you
    Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
    I say, hey poppa, hey poppa, close to you
    Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
    I say, hey momma, hey momma, close to you
    Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
    I say, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
    Hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
    My momma told me don't lose you
    'Cause the best luck I had was you
    And I know one thing
    That I love you
    I say hey, I'll be gone today
    But I'll be back all around the way
    It seems like everywhere I go
    The more I see, the less I know
    I say hey, I'll be gone today
    But I'll be back all around the way
    It seems like everywhere I go
    The more I see, the less I know
    But I know one thing
    That I love you (baby girl)
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    (Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
    I say, hey poppa, hey poppa
    Hey momma, hey momma
    Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
    Come on, hey poppa, hey poppa)
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I love you, I love you, I love you
    I love you, I love you, I love you
