Goodnight, my mad city: I'm leaving you tonight
I hope you don't mind if I drink you dry
But your bars are so pretty and they're open all night
And if the jacks don't mind and my friends don't mind
I just might take me a little more time
I want to be sure of one thing:
When I fall out the door, I won't be missing anything
Fare thee well, my lovers, I'm leaving the game
The only thing that bothers me
I wish I'd caught some of your names
And if you get too lonely, just remember I'm only
One sun in a sky full of stars
I want you to realize:
When you kiss me the once
You kiss me every damn day of my life
So long, so long, I've been here so long
That I've charted every inch of the air
So long, I've been climbing to the house of song
That I've worn a half moon in the stairs
It took an hour to pack my things
And an hour to pawn my rings
An hour to buy my ticket and an hour to cry
An hour to make love to this one last guy
Before the moment I ever said hello
I was already making my goodbyes
I couldn't believe that it would every last
For so long I tried
Keep the party rolling till I get back
Just pretend I went for cigarettes
And I lost my way back in the dark
And if the music's loud and the laughter's loud
When my cab pulls out you won't hear the sound
I wish I could make up my mind
I wanna go, I wanna stay
I wanna leave myself behind
So long, so long, I've been here so long
That I've charted every inch of the air
So long, I've been climbing to the house of song
That I've worn a half moon in the stairs
It took an hour burn my mail
And an hour to paint my nails
An hour to throw all my kittens in the creek
An hour to wipe the last glitter from my cheek
Before the moment I ever said hello
I was already making my goodbyes
I couldn't believe that it would every last
For so long, I tried
