Riding For The Feeling Lyrics - Apocalypse - Bill Callahan

It's never easy to say goodbye 

To the faces 

So rarely do we see another one 

So close and so long 

I asked the room if I'd said enough 

No one really answered 

They just said, "Don't go, don't go" 

Well all this leaving is neverending 

I kept hoping for one more question 

Or for someone to say, 

"Who do you think you are?" 

So I could tell them 

With intensity, the drop evaporates by law 

In conclusion, leaving is easy 

When you've got some place you need to be 

I'm giving up this gig for another seaon 

With the TV on mute 

I'm listening back to the tapes 

On the hotel bed 

My my my apocalypse 

I realized I had said very little about ways or wheels 

Or riding for the feeling 

Riding for the feeling 

Is the fastest way to reach the shore 

On water or land 

Riding for the feeling 

What if I had stood there at the end 

And said again and again and again and again and again 

An answer to every question 

Riding for the feeling 

Would that have been a suitable goodbye?
