Say Goodnight

words & music by Nate Shelkey

Maybe moved too fast ‘cause I can’t relate
Maybe moves don’t matter if it’s a big mistake
Maybe I’m the slow one, maybe I’m the fool here
Maybe I’m the last boy, of a long year

They say it’s all been a dream(yeah)
The things that I’ve seen
The girl that I met, she just lives in my head

Might as well be the eighteenth century(‘cause everybody’s)
Gilded and gold leaf, facades, they’re so fake
Might a known by the way you had that smile on your face
It’s just lies

I don’t even want to know
I’m really trying to let things go
I just didn’t want to walk away
I think it’s time to say Goodnight

It’s pumpkin time again

We’ll meet in a bar on the East side
At the end of the day
An Indian restaurant at sixth
And Avenue A

But your boy’s been traveling around
Thinking he’s the only show in town
But you’re showing up at everyone’s gate(tonight)

He’s probably thinking, “how sweet”
“she’s probably thinking of me”
He’s probably thinking, “how sweet”
“she’s probably thinking of me”

But here’s the surprise, yeah
She’s full of lies(What do you know?)
Even when she’s at home(Yeah)
She’s really on loan
She’s got somewhere to be
And that somewhere is me

Might as well be the eighteenth century(‘cause everybody’s)
Gilded and gold leaf, facades, they’re so fake
Might a known by the way you had that smile on your face
It’s just lies

I don’t even want to know
I’m really trying to let things go
I just didn’t want to walk away
I think it’s time to say Goodnight

It’s pumpkin time again

Mysteries are your favorite books
So that’s a perfect date
‘Cause no one knows what’s going on
Till you’re gone, till it’s just too late

You make up the past
And then you erase
You count on the present
To fill up your days
Well, you fooled me
You’re well on your way

Might as well be the eighteenth century(‘cause everybody’s)
Gilded and gold leaf, facades, they’re so fake
Might a known by the way you had that smile on your face
It’s just lies

I don’t even want to know
I’m really trying to let things go
I just didn’t want to walk away
I think it’s time to say Goodnight

It’s pumpkin time again
