There's every good reason for letting you go She's sneaky and smoked out And it's starting to show I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you turn around, our back on each other That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother Turn around your back on each other You say that I've changed Well maybe I did But even if I changed What's wrong with it I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you turn around, our back on each other That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother Turn around your back on each other And our friends are gone and gone And all the time moves on and on And all I know is it's wrong, it's wrong And all I know it's wrong, it's wrong, it's wrong, it's wrong If there's a reason, it's lost on me Maybe we'll be friends, I guess we'll see I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you go I'll never let you turn around, our back on each other That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother Turn around let's turn on each other Good idea, break a promise to your mother Turn around your back on each other That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother Turn around your back on each other What a good idea I remember the stupid things, the mood rings, the bracelets and the beads Nickels and dimes, yours and mine, did you cash in all your dreams You don't dream for me, no, (goodbye, goodbye) you don't dream for me, no But I still feel you pulse like sonar from the days in the waves That girl is like a sunburn I would like to say The girl is like a sunburn I would like to say She's like a sunburn She's like a sunburn
