You can go now
I won’t try to stop you this time
I won’t make a sound
If I can help it
You can go now
I will not celebrate this leaving in a song
There’ll be no convincing lines
‘Cause you’ve made up both of our minds
I only wrote this down
To get it from my pen
To put it on the page
To not be seen again
To close the book for good
A match brought to one end
It’s going up in smoke
Going, going, gone
Just like you know how
You can go now
You can go now
North or south, east or west it seems
The older I get, the more that going is just gone
And there’s really nothing in between
You can go now
There was once upon a time
I could get some mileage from your leaving
Now it doesn’t seem to matter anymore
So take your china doll
With her folded paper heart
Before you place her gently
On the back seat of your car
Brush away the treasures
You never learned to hold
We’ll wave one last goodbye
‘Cause a fool and his fool’s gold
And still the last to know
You can go now
Go now
Mmm hmm
Go on, go
Go on and go
