Past Goodbye from Past Goodbye by Matthew James Aylett

I used to say I was just relaxing
They would try and tell me that it’s no good for you
I walked so fast, I found myself running
Every corner I turned was just a deeper blue
Those days are gone they felt like lightning
Now it’s gone, it’s left me, calm and true
Now every word is worth the writing
Every melody can spell a tune

Gotta keep going, gotta get it right
Too many years and endless nights
Gotta keep going, keep searching for that sign
Got to use these two hands to build
Whatever I can helps me understand
Helps me feel alive

I used to count the days untill friday
Saturday , Sunday was the only thing that was mine
Now I plan ahead to get away
Gotta keep pushing, its all out there to find

Gotta keep going, gotta get it right
Too many years and endless nights
Gotta keep going, keep searching for that sign
Got to use these two hands to build
Whatever I can helps me understand
Helps me feel alive

I'll take that run-down old bar
Sit in the corner, play my guitar
To anyone who listens, to anyone who’s got the time
Keeps me searching instead
Takes the words right out of my head
I say hello to the future and wave the past goodbye
