Say Goodbye To It All - Chris De Burgh

作词：Chris De Burgh

作曲：Chris De Burgh

Took a boat over Lake Geneva

It was raining all night long

We were lucky and we saw no enemy

And came from Switzerland poor refugees

Far from the guns of war

We said goodbye to it all

They brought us into a nurse's station

Half a mile behind the lines

Oh Lord how my heart was breaking

To see the children and the walking wounded

Hoping for a ticket home

And say goodbye to it all

I woke up on a cold blue mornin'

To see her there standin' right beside me

Long years since I left her at the borderline

And how she found me I'll never know

We decided there and then

To say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Took a train from Paris to the ocean

Found a small hotel by the coast

As we walked along the beaches of Normandy

We came to Juno Omaha and Gold

And whispered a prayer for the boys

Who said goodbye to it all

Now we've got our own place by the water

And I have a job in the old hotel

She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter

Well I don't mind we've made our choice

We've got all the time in the world

We said goodbye to it all

We said goodbye to it all

Bye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye to it all

Say goodbye

Say goodbye
