We sit and watch umbrellas fly I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry I hear myself say, my boat's leaving now So we shake hands and cry Now I must wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye
You know I don't want to cry again I don't want to cry again I don't want to say goodbye I don't want to cry again I don't want to run away I don't want to raise this pain I'll never see your face again
[Post-Chorus] Oh, but how How can you say that I didn't try You see things in the depths of my eyes That my love's run dry, no
I leave to their goodbyes I've come to depend on the look in their eyes My blood's sweet for pain The wind and the rain brings back words of a song And they say wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye
You know I don't want to fall again I don't want to know this pain I don't want another friend I don't want to try again I never want to see you hurt Don't let me see you hurt I don't want to cry again I'll never see your face again
[Post-Chorus] How can you say that I didn't try? You know I did You see things in the depths of my eyes That my love's run dry I don't want to cry again
[Outro] So I read to myself A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons On the front page A black and white picture of Manhattan skyline
