Erasure
A Long Goodbye
[Verse 1]
In these days of mine for keeps I'm trying to hold on
Suddenly you're all out of reach and everything goes wrong
What we say and what we do are entirely different things
Meaningless straight through the roof, it's not how it should be
Easy like a bird, I ride the breeze, my mind is falling

[Chorus]
You're so ordinary, you're my sanctuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart, and a long goodbye and
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction, in this crazy
Land of milk and honey, life is just an illusion

[Verse 2]
I just don't know what to believe in, if the truth be known
Suffering from soul fatigue, weathering the storm
What we say (We say) and what we do (We do)
Are entirely different things (Things)
Whispered voices fill the room, it's not how it should be
Swaying like a tree (Like a tree I feel the sky)
I feel the sky, somebody calling

[Chorus]
You're so ordinary, be my sanctuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart, and a dumb goodbye
Then you go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction in this
Crazy mixed-up world of honey life is just an illusion, darling (An illusion, darling)
(You're so ordinary)
(You're so, you're so)
(You're so ordinary)

Easy like a bird, I ride the breeze, my mind is falling

[Chorus]
You're so ordinary, be my sanctuary in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart, and a long goodbye (Goodbye)
You go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction, in this crazy
Mixed up world of honey, life is just an illusion

You're so ordinary, sanctuary, be my one in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart, and a long goodbye
Then you go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction, in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey, life is just an illusion

You're so ordinary, sanctuary, be my light in the morning, darling
New sensation, love vibration, heart to heart, and a long goodbye
Then you go your way, I'll go my way, life is truer than fiction, in this
Crazy mixed up world of honey, life is just an illusion, darling
(Darling)
