Little Good-byes

(Ooooo, ooooo)
I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
And I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind
When you come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
Chorus 1
My little good-byes
Empty hangers by the closet door
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
My little good-byes
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles left Billy Joel
Little good-byes, little good-byes
I'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if you're wondering when you're gonna hear from me
Well, take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to see
When you come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
Chorus 2
My little good-byes
Took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter but I took the cat
My little good-byes
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
Little good-byes, Oh baby, little good-byes
Bridge
So, cry to your mamma
And your sympathetic friends and tell 'em
And tell them how the story ends
Chorus 3
My little good-byes
Took the hourglass, left the sand
Now you've got time on your hands
My little good-byes
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddha man
Chorus 4
My little good-byes
Change my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little good-byes with every ring
My little good-byes
Left the pictures took the frame
I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Little good-byes
Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
Little good-byes
