| Lyrics: | Verse 1 Fair enough then you say farewell Guess I’ll drown me in a wishing well I’ll wish for hellos and highs Good for nothing is the word goodbye Verse 2 Now the lights are dim and that’s a fact I’m an old magician you’re a vanishing act With my top hat and your rabbits eyes Good for nothing is the word goodbye Verse 3 Like the redcoats when the general falls I fear the bullets and the cannonballs I wrote this song here it’s from me to you No more wishes just a fond adieu |
