Long Wave Goodbye

I made a promise to myself
 That I would sooner rot in hell
 Than spend another moment with you
 I feel that time is slipping by
 And if I felt it was worth a try
 Then maybe baby, I would cry
 Just one more sad sigh
 I have sipped the sweetest wine
 But this one tastes just past its prime
 So go on, take the long wave goodbye
 Doctor's bills are piling sky high
 While I try to reason with why
 I haven't taken the long wave goodbye
 I had a chance weeks ago
 To tell you baby to hit the road
 But one look at me
 With your sad blue eyes
 Well I hate to see a grown man cry
 Ya gotta go on, pack your things
 'Cause I'm cutting all your strings
 And I'm waving the long wave goodbye
 The train is barrelling down the track
 Whistle's blowing, your bags are packed
 Hurry now, don't be late
 'Cause that would be your last mistake
 Hill of beans don't count for much
 Forget to write, don't keep in touch
 'Cause I'm waving the long wave goodbye
 You're taking the long wave goodbye
 Goodbye
 Bye bye, baby, goodbye
 Train's coming down the track
 You're taking the long wave goodbye
