Say Goodbye Lyrics
Got a lot on my mind I want to tell you
I don't know where to start
You're gettin' way outta line I want to tell you
You're actin' too damn smart
This little game you're playin'
Has lost its fun somehow
You had me goin' but I figured it out
An' I'm not playin', I'm not playin' now
[Chorus]
Say goodbye, I'll be leavin' in the mornin'
Nothin' you can do to make me stay
Say goodbye, I'll be leavin' in the mornin'
Say goodbye, it's the only thing to say
Then I'll be on my way
Little girl, dressed to kill
I see through your disguise
You want to be big time but you never will
'cause I see through all your lies
You say you're somethin' special
Well you talk a real good game
But now the party's over
An' you just don't sound
You just don't sound the same
[Chorus]
Don't say you love me
Don't say you need me
[Chorus]
I don't know where to start
You're gettin' way outta line I want to tell you
You're actin' too damn smart
This little game you're playin'
Has lost its fun somehow
You had me goin' but I figured it out
An' I'm not playin', I'm not playin' now
Say goodbye, I'll be leavin' in the mornin'
Nothin' you can do to make me stay
Say goodbye, I'll be leavin' in the mornin'
Say goodbye, it's the only thing to say
Then I'll be on my way
I see through your disguise
You want to be big time but you never will
'cause I see through all your lies
You say you're somethin' special
Well you talk a real good game
But now the party's over
An' you just don't sound
You just don't sound the same
Don't say you need me

Once again the songs that are not so popular are iconic to me , this one does have a significant memory for me. I wish there was more information . I pretty much love them all
Every once in a while I get to thinking of the early 80s, and I remember Triumph having a video or two ( mostly concert performance, IIRC), and I may have never known of this song if not for MTV. Say Goodbye and Lay It On The Line are probably my favorite Triumph tunes (always liked Movin' On too!), love the lead guitar and the driving beat, especially at the start.
