Good Bye Vienna


Well its goodbye Vienna
And so long Saigon
Hello Honolulu
And my love is long gone

Ten thousand miles
On the blade of a knife
But it never cut me once
Not like my life

I shot through the country
And into the yard
And at the back of the city
My head hit down hard

Well its ten thousand borders
That I need to cross
But just one line between us
That decides a win or a loss

And I don’t like to gamble
With my heart in that way
Its already a shamble,
like a needle in the hay

I’ve lost my bearing
Somewhere on your map
And you’re out of my hearing
As you sit on my lap

There’s a wild unknown country
Where I must go
And so its out of the city
And on with the show
