The Left Banke - Goodbye Holly lyrics

She came into my life On the wings of a lavender eagle When I saw her I said, "you're the seagull" And she said, "you're right" And now she's gone away Yes I know in my mind I'll remember All the love any time I would send her Till she stole the light Holly said to say goodbye to you She remembers (goodbye, goodbye, Holly) how you'd fare Before her too (Holly says to say goodbye, goodbye!) Holly says that I first said that I would cry so (Holly said that, I first thought that then she said goodbye so) Goodbye dear Holly, I'm truly sorry, You know no one could love you more than I When Holly came around All the strength of the sea was beside her And her beauty was ever denied her For beauty was she She came upon my eyes Like the sky in the middle of dawning And she conquered the night with the morning That we might all see Holly says to say goodbye to you She remembers (goodbye, goodbye, Holly) how you'd fare Before her too (Holly says to say goodbye, goodbye!) Holly says that I first said that I would cry so (Holly says that, I first talked to her then she said goodbye so) Goodbye dear Holly, I'm truly sorry, You know no one could love you more than I Holly says to say goodbye to you She remembers (goodbye, goodbye, Holly) how you'd fare Before her too (Holly says to say goodbye, goodbye!) Holly says to say goodbye to you She remembers (goodbye, goodbye, Holly) how you'd fare Before her too (Holly says to say goodbye, goodbye!)
