"Goodbye Forever, Maybe" lyrics

"Goodbye Forever, Maybe"

I might disappear someday
Fall off the map, find a little hideaway inside a cave
And I will paint the walls all day
Make a mosaic of stains with feather brushes and I'll take my time with it
Because I care about my craft
And they will find what's left of me a thousand years after I've passed
Just art and bones the only things that ever last
Just art and bones, the only things that ever last

So goodbye, forever, maybe
I might just take off and go
There's no need to look for me
Cause you'll never find out where I plan to go
Goodbye forever, maybe so

I might disappear sometime
Call in sick from work and gather every single dime I've ever earned
And I will turn my back on life
Buy a little barkentine, make up the best crew I can find
We'll chase the sun because we don't like chasing trends
They'll call me captain, and I, laughing
Love to call them all my men
And our adventures hardly ever seem to end
And our adventures hardly ever seem to end

So goodbye, forever, maybe
I might just take off and go
There's no need to look for me
Cause you'll never find out where I plan to go
Goodbye forever, maybe so

I might never leave this town
I might find a girl, and she might need to buy a gown
White pickett fences, no expense is too much now
Since I've been working as a clerk I've saved and put a payment down
We got the house and thirty years of mortgages
We pay the bills, we watch tv, and we might have a couple kids
I'm scared of that; but, what if that is all there is?
I'm scared of that; but, what if that is all there is?

So goodbye, forever, maybe
I might just take off and go
There's no need to look for me
Cause you'll never find out where I plan to go
Goodbye forever, maybe so
