Rod Stewart - Farewell

Fare thee well my brother Please don't stand in my way I'm going down to that dirty town No matter what you say You fooled me and you ruled me And you played in every part I gotta go, it's no use me stayin' home Goodbye my sister Please don't let me see you cry Gonna be a star some day No matter what they say And when you hear the crowds All callin' and shouting out my name Until then, my little friend, I'll be unsatisfied So long sweet Melinda Don't forget that you're my girl Gonna dress you fine And if you give me time Make you proud like I said I would And if the Champs Elysee's no fallacy If I find the world looks like it should Candy cars, movie stars, street bars Then I could stay a while Well I love you Shall I write or phone from Paris or Rome And I'll miss you all Even tho' you're tryin' to hold me back Farewell all my family Don't you know I mean you so well Please appreciate I must make a break Just to see what I can do The stage is set so understand I can't hide in the wings no more I've got to go now it's no use me staying home All I can say is I love you Shall I write or phone from Paris or Rome And I think I'm always gonna miss you And I love you always I think I'm always gonna miss ya Even tho' you're tryin' to hold me back And I love you and I miss you If you don't get no mail you know I'm in jail If you don't get no mail you know I'm in jail But I love you and I miss you I love you.
