I LOVE A LONG GOODBYE (Chris Murphy)
And though no one knows for certain
Where or when I'll draw the curtain,
It's because it's been said
That I love a long goodbye.
We broke it off, but not forgotten
But I thought that this could be
An opportunity for us to try
To examine my reluctant leaving,
Since I'm sad & if you're lonesome, call,
I love a long goodbye,
Ooh, that's unworthy of me,
Mind you, I need to know you love me.
Look at things from my perspective, please
Just what about me makes my motives seem so hard to justify,
Well talk to me tomorrow,
I might have another story,
I'll make sure I do, I love a long goodbye
Ooh, that's unworthy of me,
Mind you, I need to know you love me
Goodbye, you can count on this for certain,
I love you & I hate to draw the curtain
And though no one knows for certain
Where or when I'll draw the curtain,
It's because it's been said
That I love a long goodbye.
We broke it off, but not forgotten
But I thought that this could be
An opportunity for us to try
To examine my reluctant leaving,
Since I'm sad & if you're lonesome, call,
I love a long goodbye,
Ooh, that's unworthy of me,
Mind you, I need to know you love me.
Look at things from my perspective, please
Just what about me makes my motives seem so hard to justify,
Well talk to me tomorrow,
I might have another story,
I'll make sure I do, I love a long goodbye
Ooh, that's unworthy of me,
Mind you, I need to know you love me
Goodbye, you can count on this for certain,
I love you & I hate to draw the curtain
