This is no fond farewell You can be sure I could wish It was no farewell at all It's been a good long run Oh, to be sure I don't regret much Not much at all I'm gonna love the night away Gonna do what I want to any old day And all at once I know the clouds Gonna clear for me And I will do all right Well in truth, I might I may be stumbling round on some cold night And I will miss the times when we were so right Although it seems so long ago, so long This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone This is no sorrowful day You can be sure I've got No axe to grind at all It's circumstance or burn out You can be sure I've been grinding Till I'm grinding to a halt Sometimes it's the right thing to cut the cord You've been holding on hard but your hands get sore Sometimes it's worth it, but sometimes you wonder what for And I will do all right Well in truth, I might I may be stumbling round in some dim light And I will miss the times when it was so right Although it seems so long ago, so long This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone And I will do all right Well in truth, I might I may be stumbling round on some cold night And I will do all right Well in truth, I might I may be stumbling round on some cold night And I will miss the times when we were so right Although it seems so long ago, so long This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone I'm gone, yeah, I'm gone I'll be long, long gone, long gone
