lyrics

Oh I loved you for awhile but now I see we are too different for each other
And it was great I don’t deny, but I just don’t see a future with us together
And I was with you for all of my life
Until now when I’ve begun to realize
That I was seeing with such a narrow sight
And now it’s clear that there is no compromise

Well, you boasted your freedoms so often that you didn’t see them go away
And with you is no better than without you, I can honestly say
But I know that I won’t be missed much
For soon we’ll be completely out of touch
I’ll just be less weight upon your crutch
Though that’s not saying much

And I’m gone now can’t you see?
So there’s no need to keep the light on for me
For there’s always a point when enough is enough
So goodbye, America

Perhaps someday I will return but only to get a few of my things
So don’t get your hopes up because I really have no intentions to stay
And though my mother misses me
I know that she would agree
That everyone has their own life to lead
And we call that destiny

So I’m gone now can’t you see?
Yeah, there’s no need to keep the light on for me
For there’s always a point when enough is enough
So goodbye, America

Yeah I’m gone now can’t you see?
So there’s no need to keep the light on for me
For there’s always a point when enough is enough
So goodbye, America
