Song | The Goodbye Look |
Artist | Donald Fagen |
Album | The Nightfly |
作词 : Fagen | |
The surf was easy on the day I came to stay | |
On this quiet island in the bay | |
I remember a line of women all in white | |
The laughter and the steel bands at night | |
Now the Americans are gone exept for two | |
The embassy's been hard to reach | |
There's been talk and lately a bit of action after dark | |
Behind the big casino on the beach | |
The rules are changed | |
It's not the same | |
It's all new players in a whole new ball game | |
Last night I dreamed of an old lover dressed in gray | |
I've had this fever now since yesterday | |
Wake up darling they're knocking the Colonel's standing in the sun | |
With his stupid face the glasses and the gun | |
I know what happens | |
I read the book | |
I believe I just got the goodbye look | |
Won't you pour me a Cuban breeze Gretchen | |
I know a fellow with a motor launch for hire | |
A skinny man with two-tone shoes | |
Cause tonight they're arranging a small reception just for me | |
Behind the big casino by the sea | |
I know what happens | |
I read the book | |
I believe I just got the goodbye look |
