The Long Goodbye Lyrics - Gary Brooker

(Brooker / Fisher / Reid) 

I know I've done my best 

But that's no consolation 

I s'pose I should have guessed 

When I saw the invitation 

you told me love was blind 

But you were only joking 

I know you've changed your mind 

But I still keep on hoping. 

Head held high 

Eyes on the sky 

I know I've got to be strong 

If I see you again 

it will be as a friend 

With time for a long goodbye 

You know I felt so bad 

When I left you at the station 

It was the first time I 

Had felt such desolation 

It's been a long, log time 

And I still can't forget you 

But my friends all say 

That maybe I don't want to.
