Molly Johnson

I made a promise to myself
That I would sooner rot in hell
Than spend another moment with you
I feel that time is slipping by
And if I felt it was worth a try
Then maybe baby, I would cry
just one more sad sigh

I have sipped the sweetest wine
But this one tastes just past its prime
So go on, take the long wave goodbye
Doctor's bills are piling sky high
While I try to reason with why
I haven't taken the long wave goodbye

I had a chance weeks ago
To tell you baby to hit the road
But one look at me
With your sad blue eyes
Well I hate to see a grown man cry

Ya gotta go on, pack your things
'Cause I'm cutting all your strings
And I'm waving the long wave goodbye

The train is barrelling down the track
Whistle's blowing, your bags are packed
Hurry now, don't be late
'Cause that would be your last mistake
Hill of beans don't count for much
Forget to write, don't keep in touch
'Cause I'm waving the long wave goodbye

You're taking the long wave goodbye
Goodbye
Bye bye, baby, goodbye
Train's coming down the track
You're taking the long wave goodbye

Melody, Molly Johnson

It’s so easy here with you
Like a walk in the park just before dark
Always so easy here with you
Like sun on my face, a bright summer day

You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go I still hear music constantly
You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you’re gone you’re haunting, yeah you’re taunting me

As summer slips to fall, yes, it does
Seems no time’s past at all, not at all
As summer slips to fall and then it snows
Then I watch you go, watch you go

You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go I still hear music constantly
You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go you’re haunting, yeah (yeah) taunting me

I got a feeling ‘bout you
It might be nothing new
But time slips by, I hardly try
So don’t they say (?)
I won’t be blue
‘Cause love will follow, love will follow, follow you

You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go I’ll still hear music constantly
You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go you’re haunting, yeah you’re taunting me

You’re like a sweet smelling breeze
Sneaking up on me
And when you go you’re haunting, yeah you’re taunting me
You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go I still hear music constantly

You’re like a melody
That follows me
And when you go you’re haunting, yeah you’re taunting me
