Eastern Standard Time

[Intro] Goodbye, goodbye Eastern standard time It could be roses in my pocket or be roses on my stone [Verse 1] The waves on the shore take all of my being Gray and habitual, resolved and serene And I'm at your door half-smiling All of a man half-waiting for the bell to ring While all of those waves unwavering, unwavering [Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye Eastern standard time It could be roses in my pocket or be roses on my stone Goodbye, goodbye In this dark, dark hour of night I'll be the only one alone, I'll be the only one alone I'll be the only one alone [Verse 2] It can't be ignored though it can be screened Oh, singing out these melodies with all I mean So surround and adore me, arouse and implore me The waves will roll, the waves will crash And what left will there be? Oh, what left will there be? [Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye Eastern standard time It could be roses in my pocket or be roses on my stone Goodbye, goodbye In this dark, dark hour of night I'll be the only one alone, I'll be the only one alone I'll be the only one alone, I'll be the only one alone I'll be the only one alone, I'll be the only one alone [Outro] Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye The waves on the shore Take all of my being Goodbye, goodbye
