Ain't it funny how the time slips away

'Cause now I'm leavin' and I wish I could stay

People wonder why they don't get a chance

They wait for music but they don't get to dance

Mmm, well now I know when my work is through

I'm gonna be with you

So goodbye

Is only for now

'Cause I'm comin' back

I swear it somehow



Ain't it funny how we win but we lose

We're given prizes that we don't get to use

People wonder 'bout the things that we've got

It seems so little but we know it's a lot

Now I know when my work is through

I'm gonna be with you, oh yeah

I'm gonna be with you



So goodbye, is only for now

'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow

Oh, goodbye is only for now

'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow

Sing it



I'm on the run

So I must go

And I hate to leave

I hope that you know



Oh, goodbye is only for now

'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow
