Goodbye Stranger Lyrics - Aimee Mann

It was an early morning yesterday 

I was up before the dawn 

And I really have enjoyed my stay 

But I must be moving on 

Like a King without a castle 

Like a Queen without a throne 

I'm an early morning lover 

And I must be moving on 

Now I believe in what you say 

Is the undisputed truth 

But I have to have things my own way 

To keep me in my youth 

Like a ship without an anchor 

Like a slave without a chain 

Just the thought of those sweet ladies 

Sends a shiver through my veins 

And I will go on shining 

Shining like brand new 

I'll never look behind me 

My troubles will be few 

Goodbye stranger, it's been nice 

Hope you find your paradise 

Tried to see your point of view 

Hope your dreams will all come true 

Goodbye Mary, goodbye Jane 

Will we ever meet again 

Feel no sorrow, feel no shame 

Come tomorrow, feel no pain 

Now some they do and some they don't 

And some you just can't tell 

And some they will and some they won't 

With some it's just as well 

You can laugh at my behavior 

That'll never bother me 

Say the devil is my savior 

But I don't pay no heed 

And I will go on shining 

Shining like brand new 

I'll never look behind me 

My troubles will be few 

Goodbye stranger it's been nice etc
