I should have known you'd bid me farewell. There's a lesson to be learned from this, And I learned it very well.
Now I know you're not the only stairfish in the sea. If I never hear your name again, It's all the same to me.
And I think it's gonna be all right, Yeah, the worst is over now. The morning sun is shining Like a red rubber ball.
You never cared for secrers I'd confide, For you, I'm just an ornament,something for your pride, Always running, Never caring, Stolen minutes of your time Were all you had to give.
And I think, etc...
The stories in the past With nothing to recall. I've got my life to live, And I don't need you at all.
The roller coaster ride we took Is nearly at an end. I bought my ticket with my tears, That's all i'm gonna spend.
It's much too groovy a summer's day To waste runnin' round in the city But here on the sand I can dream away Or look at the girls if they're pretty Chorus: It's a turn-down day Nothin' on my mind It's a turn-down day And I dig it There's nothing easier I can do Than lyin' around doing nothing [repeat chorus] Soft summer breeze and the surf rolls in To laughter of small children playin' Someone's radio has the news tuned in But nobody cares what he's sayin' [repeat chorus] Things that are waiting to mess my mind Will just have to wait 'til tomorrow [repeat chorus to fade]
We had a good thing goin' But it couldn't last. We had a good thing goin', But now it's just a thing of the past. Love took a long time growin' And then it turned bad. You've got no way of knowin' Just how much I'm missin' all the love we had.
Well I know that you don't want my love no longer, baby, But my love for you keeps getting stronger, baby. Even though you're gone, I can't keep from hangin' on Because, we had a good thing goin', So don't let it end. Let's save our love by showin' That we can get that good thing goin' again.
We had a good thing goin', So don't let it end. We'll save our love by showin' That we can get that good thing goin' again.
