What became of everyone I used to know?
Where did our respectable convictions go?
Your words dont match the story that your actions show
But what do I know?
Im sure you cant help but remembering
I thought that youd be one not to forget
Rememberings not helping you yet
Say goodnight
Mean goodbye
I know you think my life will stop when youre away
Maybe I can see you on
Holidays, worlds away
Ive never forgotten all our yesterdays
Im lucky if were speaking on the
Holidays
The evidence presents itself accusingly
Your absence speaking everything you think of me
Now that I am faced with opportunity
Youre not remembering
Im not asking you anyway
And even if you ever could cave in
I wouldnt know where to begin
Say goodnight
Mean goodbye
I know you think my life will stop when youre away
Maybe I can see you on
Holidays, worlds away
Ive never forgotten all our yesterdays
I'm lucky if were speaking on
Holidays
Holidays
Say goodnight
Mean goodbye
I know you think my life will stop when youre away
I'm lucky if were speaking on
Holidays
Holidays
This is another version I created on acoustic that is very similar to the one
above except it includes some lead/melody for those wishing for an acoustic
version that sounds more like the album.
