(Ian Hunter) 
I was having a drink with Prince Charles and the Queen 
When Winston Churchill stepped into my dream 
His head it was heavy, his voice was shakin' 
He said, "Look what they've done - it's the death of a Nation" 
  
I followed his shadow right out of the bar 
And we talked all night 'neath the light of the stars 
He said, "This used to be a cradle of civilization 
Now look what they've done - it's the death of a Nation" 
  
Everything's illusion now, nothing's what it seems 
Money isn't everything, when you're turning your back on a dream 
I held you together when you were breakin' 
You can pull down the flags- it's the death of a Nation 
  
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N we'll never die, no we'll never die 
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N we'll never die, no we will never die 
  
From the bottom of this ancient heart 
I hate to see you falling apart 
Cos I love you still, I love you still, I love you still 
  
You've been getting away with it far too long 
Your promises ain't worth the paper they're printed on 
I had a love, but that love's been forsaken 
Look what they've done, it's the death of a Nation. 
  
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N we'll never die, no we'll never die 
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N we'll never die, no we will never die 
  
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N I'll never die, no I will never die 
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye, 
'N I'll never die, no I will never die
