Goodbye was the last word
You said to me
That was so long ago
Would you forgive me, please?

Did you get my letters?
Read them at all?
You know I'm no good at writing
But, I've been meaning to call

I saw your new love
She looks a little like me
She looks like an angel
If that's what you mean
But we've had some troubles
And, I've been thinking of you

Well, if you're asking to come back
Tell me what will you do?
Will you say goodbye again?
Goodbye again?
Do you really want me?
Or do you just need a friend?
My arms long to hold you
Feel the warmth of your skin
But it would hurt me too much
To hear goodbye again

Well, I promise that this time
My love will be true
Baby, I promise I'll always
To be here just for you

I want to believe it
I wish I could try
But the last word you tell me
Is always goodbye

Goodbye was the last word
She said to me
