Wave Them Goodbye Ft Alan Nimmo (Single)

by Rebecca Downes

/

about

This song is a duet about being fearful of your circumstances and wanting to run away with your partner. Being in wrong place at the wrong time but you won’t leave/escape without them.

Originally released on More Sinner Than Saint, this version - which features Alan Nimmo of King King on vocals - was released as a single in September 2020.

lyrics

I sense there's something wrong
There's a feeling that don't set right here
I’m thinking we don't belong
Hey, hey baby are you getting the fear?

And we should plan an escape
Some sort of exit or a strategy
For every move that we make
Could be our last
Baby what do you say?

And I just want our backs to the wind again
I won't watch us tail-spinning down
I smelled danger right at the beginning
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye
And I won't leave here alone
Wave goodbye

I feel the walls on fire
I see the eagle flying round our heads
A case of do or die
Hey, hey babe wishin’ we was dead

So we should grab our stuff
Pack up the bags and
Sneak away alone
Before our time is up
Ooh-ooh baby now I’m taking you home

And I just want our backs to the wind again
I won't watch us tail-spinning down
I smelled danger right at the beginning
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye

Wave them goodbye
Wave them goodbye
Wave them goodbye
Wave them goodbye, wave them goodbye
Wave them goodbye

And I just want our backs to the wind again
And I won't watch us tail-spinning down
And I smelled danger right at the beginning
And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye
And I won't leave here alone
Wave goodbye

And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye

And I won't leave here alone
Just wave goodbye

And I won't leave here alone

And I won't leave here alone

Wave them goodbye, wave them goodbye
Wave them goodbye
