Bic Runga - Honest Goodbyes

Sink with the tide
Rescue me if you like
I'll be leaving it all up to you
Think how we tried
It's ok to be lied to
As long as it's only by you
People say to me it's best
that we've parted
'Cause you know I'm better alone
Don't explain to me how
you're so broken hearted
I'm too busy mending my own
Ending each night
with such honest goodbyes
Such honest goodbyes
for the last time
Honest goodbyes
only work once or twice
They work once or twice
Then the rest must be lies

Late ever night the colours
fade from the sky
And the music is gone from the moon
Standing in line for
what used to be mine
What use is the rhyme with no tune
People say to me it's best that
we've parted
And nothing is carved out in stone
It's such a shame how
we're back where we started
It's late now and time that we go
Ending each night
with such honest goodbyes
Such honest goodbyes
for the last time
Honest goodbyes
only work once or twice
They work once or twice
Then the rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
Sink with the tide
Rescue me if you like
I'll be leaving it all up to you
Think how we tried
It's ok to be lied to
As long as it's only by you
People say to me it's best
that we've parted
'Cause you know I'm better alone
Don't explain to me how
you're so broken hearted
I'm too busy mending my own
Ending each night
with such honest goodbyes
Such honest goodbyes
for the last time
Honest goodbyes
only work once or twice
They work once or twice
Then the rest must be lies

Late ever night the colours
fade from the sky
And the music is gone from the moon
Standing in line for
what used to be mine
What use is the rhyme with no tune
People say to me it's best that
we've parted
And nothing is carved out in stone
It's such a shame how
we're back where we started
It's late now and time that we go
Ending each night
with such honest goodbyes
Such honest goodbyes
for the last time
Honest goodbyes
only work once or twice
They work once or twice
Then the rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
The rest must be lies
