Jesper Lindell - A Strange Goodbye Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jesper Lindell]
The radio tells me the weather's so, so sweet
But I ain't seen the sun in six or seven weeks
It makes no difference to me
It might as well be snowin' sleet, mm-hmm
Sixty long years together 'neath the sun
Work this thing until each day was done
But then she slipped away from me
Twelve years before her body
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

[Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza]
She's the bird that flys
Every star up in the sky
The wind that whispers and cries
Out a strange goodbye

[Verse 2: Kassi Valazza, Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza]
He just turned nineteen and I was twenty-three
I asked him for a cigarette by the old factory
But never in my wildest dreams
Would that boy be marryin' me, mm-hmm
We bought a little place in the shade of some old pine trees
Couple cows and a dog, and a few old sheep
But now, that's all lost like a dream
Or some old forgotten movie scene
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza]
She's the bird that flys
Every star up in the sky
The wind that whispers and cries
Out a strange goodbye

[Verse 3: Jesper Lindell]
I remember the day she first forgot my name
I tried to remind her through a picture frame
The grandkids often came
She always loved them the same, mm-hmm
I stood by her, though sometimes she'd beat me up
When you cast down at the racetracks said, "Man, ain't you had enough?"
But she's my best friend, you see
And she'd do the same for me
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

[Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza]
She's the bird that flys
Every star up in the sky
The wind that whispers and cries
Out a strange goodbye

[Outro: Jesper Lindell]
The radio tells me it's gettin' cold outside
And if the storm gets closer, I don't think I'll make it out alive
But maybe I'll see my bride
Greet me on the other side, mm-hmm
