Tom Waits Old Shoes song lyrics

I? m singin? this song, 'cause it? s time it was sung

I? ve been puttin? it off for a while

'Cause it? s harder by now, and the truth is so clear

That I? m cryin? when I? m seein? you smile

So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear

And your tears cannot bind me anymore

And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes

Can I kiss you, and then I? ll be gone

And every time that I tried to tell you that we? d

Lost the magic we had at the start

I would weep in my heart when I looked in your eyes

And I? d search once again for the spark

So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear

And your tears cannot bind me anymore

And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes

Can I kiss you, and then I? ll be gone

For you know, that there? s somethin? callin? me, dear

And by morning I? m sure to be gone

For I? m older than you, and you know oh so well

That our time for the love was this song

So goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear

And your tears cannot bind me anymore

And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes

Can I kiss you, and then I? ll be gone

Now I can see by your eyes, that it? s time for to go

So I? ll leave you cryin? in the rain

Though I held in my hand, the key to all joy

Honey, my heart was not born to be tamed

And goodbye, so long, the road calls me, dear

And your tears cannot bind me anymore

And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes

Can I kiss you, and then I? ll be gone

Can I kiss you, and then I? ll be gone
