Tears for Fears - Goodnight Song lyrics

Here on the stage, the time has come

With the strings of 'be my angel', of rocking 2/4

Time may keep alive

That old swan song

That we've been playing forever

'Til the time may be right to say 'goodbye'

My voice is aching

I'm tongue-tied

And the sounds we are making are so old

Goodnight song, played so wrong

Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud so long

It's an honest day

Take the best of me and then the rest let go

In every situation where there's tireless rage

Step outside the cage

And let the real fool show

I should have stayed 'round to break the ice

I thought about it once or twice

But nothing ever changes

Unless there's some pain

And our goodnight song, played so wrong,

Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud so long

Goodnight song, played so wrong

Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud, so long
