Lyrics
Don’t look now, but summer’s over
The North Wind is here
The red rose, the four-leaf clover disappear
The shadows start to fall
The writing’s on the wall
You can’t, you can’t fight City Hall
Refrain:
The things we planned
Good-bye to all that
We built on sand
Good-bye to all that
Whoever called a parting sweet sorrow
Never knew what I’m going through
The years ahead we never will share
Our golden anniversary melts into thin air
The paradise we could have known tomorrow
Good-bye, good-bye to all that
