Say Goodbye
NY 
I used to knock around with a carload of crazy friends
we had some laughs and went our separate ways
eventually they all wound up in movieland
beholding the glories of the Royal Scam
with so little future in their own hands
say goodbye NY and LA, found my own way to go
say goodbye NY and LA, with a lady I know
we’ll slip away to the shores of Tropez
I don’t care what they say
somewhere is love
every day plays the gay blade parade of silly stars
shouting out ‘no you’re not quite good enough’
boy, do we ever listen
even I in my search for a high have believed in dreams
that torched like the towers of South Broadway
when will Romeo find just one place to stay
say goodbye NY and LA, got my own way to go
say goodbye NY and LA, and with a lady I know
we’ll sail away to God’s little Tropez
I don’t care what they say
somewhere is love
so say goodbye from New York to LA, found my own
place to be
goodbye, goodbye USA, oh say can you see
the sunny shores of our sacred Tropez
I don’t even hear what they say
somewhere is love
say goodbye…
found our own place to be
goodbye, goodbye USA oh say can you see
the sunny shores of our sacred Tropez
I won’t hear what they say
somewhere is love
somewhere is love
