Frank Black Strange Goodbye lyrics

I used to walk in a big black cloud
You took my hand and you led me out
A nest of demons bled on my chest
You picked me up and you layed them to rest

It's a pain to be sure, we were aiming so high
It's so strange to be saying goodbye

We saw the world from an automobile
Saw the best views over ten thousand meals
Funny how an evening turns into years
Funny how we're laughing through all of these tears

It's a pain to be sure, we sure gave it a try

It's a shame to be saying goodbye

Oh my darlin', should we have one more dance?
A prayer to the rain gods to give one more chance
The water will cleanse as we spin on the plain
Take us to the ocean to find love again

It's a pain to be sure, we were aiming so high
It's so strange to be saying goodbye
It's a pain that endures, we sure gave it a try
It's so strange to be saying goodbye
