And I'd say thanks for the day
And I'm waving my hand
Start the engine and head for the night
Singing along with the tape as smile
The safe and the sound far behind
Won't you stay for the night
Have a drink and a talk
Want to hear so much more from your mouth
Let's praise this day and appreciate
All the good things when you're around
I could never be as close as you are
I could never be friend like you are
I could never hold her hand
Never understand
Be there for her when she needs you the most
So I'd hold back the damage and hold back my lips
So easy to do what is right
Friends for a minute, divided we'd part
Never to haunt you again
Dreams will be dreams
When we're strong enough to say goodnight
We'll be strong enough to say goodbye
