Well, I thought I saw a face on the marketplace
Just for a moment, then she was gone
Was it really true, the woman I once knew
What we started, ended up so wrong
I still remember the day, it's a million years away
That I jumped on the very last train
I thought I saw a face on the marketplace
I thought I saw a face on the marketplace
Oh, was it an illusion in the rain, in the rain
We were so young, we felt so wise
There was a flame, but it turned to ice
We built a house, and we called it home
We built a house, and we called it home
Now the house is sold, goodbye so long
Once there was laughter, now there is silence
Fires are cold on Treasure Island
It was planned forever, it was only a try
Now we are strangers, so long goodbye
So long goodbye
I went back to that place
Just the other day
With a guardian angel
By my side
And what I remember most
Of this house of ghosts
Cold and empty rooms
Time to say goodbye
Time to say goodbye
We were so young, we felt so wise
There was a flame, but it turned to ice
We built a house, and we called it home
We were so young, we felt so wise

Now the house is sold, goodbye so long
Once there was laughter, now there is silence
Fires are cold on Treasure Island
It was planned forever, it was only a try
Now we are strangers, so long goodbye

So long goodbye
So long goodbye
So long goodbye
So long goodbye
So long goodbye
