One Goodbye Lyrics


Your taxi waits on a Gotham night
Your head is hangin' and you still got some fight
You're far away in a lonesome land
You've left behind a lonesome manA shadow carries over you
I never had a chance to do
The things you wanted
The things you would
The things that haunt
I never couldI'm glad we met
In God we tried
My one regret
We got one goodbyeI come in pieces I always have
I miss your face the way you laugh
The world turns you're holding still
The music lifts your troubles will
I've been around you know its true
This old town gets the best of you
Mistaken footsteps fall inbound

He sat and smiled a shaky crownI'm glad we met
In God we tried
My one regret
We got one goodbyeI've got to go, there's work to do
Growin' old is something new
It's like you find another way
Where day and night is night and day
Well so long
So long for good
And if I had the guts we could
The things that last, they carry on
They flicker fast and then they're goneI'm glad we met
In God we tried
My one regret
We got one goodbye

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Their songs disguise the youth of the members of the band. Befittingly, so do the old guitars they play and old clothing they wear. But to be sure, The Milk Carton Kids have something new to present: harmonies & minimalist instrumentation which are a clear reference to times passed, but with an eye intently on the future; a perspective on coming-of-age in the eye of a present-day storm; and the chronicling of an American struggle for simplicity, at least musically.
