Long Goodbye Lyrics

Slide away
Till I can't feel you breathing down my neck
Don't call me up
This better be swift
Everything's in check
I know you're waiting
Expecting me to cave, but girl I won't
I know you think I care
I hate to tell you this
Oh no, I don't
I don't

And I'm just another memory
To keep you warm at night
I'm just another star
Fadin' out in the morning light
We're just another reason
Not to even try
It's just another chapter - long goodbye
Long goodbye

Slide away
Till I can't feel you breathing down my neck
Don't call me up
This better be swift
Everything's in check
I know you're waiting
Expecting me to cave, but girl I won't
I won't

And I'm just another memory
To keep you warm at night
I'm just another star
Fadin' out in the morning light
We're just another reason
Not to even try
It's just another chapter - long goodbye
Long goodbye

It's just another chapter - long
Just another chapter - long
It's just another chapter - long goodbye

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
