Goodbye to All That Songtext

von Eric Woolfson

From this day on you will be together
From this day on you will live as one
A band of gold that will bind forever
A harvest moon on a rising sun

The tom-boy days, the tit and the tat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that
The maiden's prayer, the bachelor hat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that

From this day on you will sing together
The nightingale and the columbine
A dance of love that will last forever
The tangled briar and the rose and wine

The pretty girls you used to look at
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that
You turn your head, there's bells on your hat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that

You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll marry the farmer's daughter
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll run away with a pauper
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll marry the sargeant major
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll run away with a stranger
Danger! Danger!

Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that

From this day on you will share together
A single coin in the wishing well
A way of life that is changed forever
A different ride on the carousel

And as for all the chit and the chat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that
The Mardi Gras, the carnival hat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that

Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that

You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll marry the farmer's daughter
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll run away with a pauper
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll marry the sargeant major
You're the one, yes you're the one
Who'll run away with a stranger
Danger! Danger!

Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that

From this day on you will be together
From this day on you will live as one
A band of gold that will bind forever
A harvest moon on a rising sun

And as for all the chit and the chat
Goodbye to all this
Goodbye to all that
The tom-boy days, the tit and the tat
Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that

Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that
Goodbye to all that, Goodbye to all that

From this day on you will be together
From this day on you will be together
Goodbye to all that!
