I wasn't born yesterday, but I remember the way things used to be, used to be.
|
I know that it was never perfect but we did not have the problems that we see, we see.
|
Tell me why, tell me why, what is the reason people have to die, tonight.
|
I could tell you all a lie, but I wish I didn't have to say goodbye, goodbye.
|
|
Say goodbye. [x5]
|
|
I keep hearin' more and more that they're shootin' teenagers in the street, oh no.
|
Sendin' children off to war, turned into fathers their children would never meet.
|
My generation with every single nation is calling out, falling down.
|
I could tell you all a lie, but I wish I didn't have to say goodbye, goodbye.
|
|
Say goodbye. [x5]
|
|
And all around the world you can hear them calling out, calling out and, sayin'.
|
I wasn't born yesterday, but I remember the way things used to be, used to be.
|
And I wish that I could lie, because a mother shouldn't have to say goodbye.
|
|
Say goodbye. [x5]

Say Goodbye
