Everything Must Go

Everything in this heart must go
I'm auctioning off pieces of me
let the tears fall
let the river flow
'cause I'm bidding adieu
to this city

She's helping me pack tonight
still begging me to see the light
the blue light in her eyes
like that shining blue sunrise
I'm putting my faith into come 6 a.m.
putting my foot out to find out who I am
or maybe who I've been
I don't know
I make it a point to never argue
with my heart
but I do know
this is the beginning of something true
this is the start
so

Everything of this soul must go
I've got a blue light special of me
let the lips smile
let the pain go
'cause I'm saying sayonara
to this city

She's wanting it back tonight
the times we held eachother tight
when the nights were cold
like the torch of a blown out soul
but we don't have the time anymore
and I've gotta find out what time has in store
for me when I walk out that door
but maybe
one last hug will set her alright
inside her heart
and maybe baby
sometime up the road at the end of night
someway for us to restart
but right now I know

Everything must be going, going, gone
I've got to reconstruct the inner me
let the guitar play
my favorite song
'cause I'm kissing goodbye
to this city
oh sad and pretty..

I'm being torn in two parts
taken in every direction at once
old love tears at my heart
I've been feeling this way for months
so sorry dear
I'm outta here

You know we were going wrong
and anyway you hid your feelings
this love became a sad sad song
a collection of notes we play but never sing
so I'm sorry girl
now I belong to the world

Still, maybe baby we'll find
someday you'll once again be mine
be it by skywriting or by letter
let it be known to me sometime
that it could be better
but till then I gotta find a rhyme
and reason for all I've ever been
and will ever be
and just who I am
well maybe I'm just me

Everything must go
let the tears fall
let the river flow
farewell to the city
but I do not fear
'cause I'm outta here

Close my eyes,
'cause I'm bidding adieu,
saying sayonara,
goodbye

I hope you are making the right decision. May good luck, strength, wisdom and happiness be yours and hers whether together or with another.
