GOODBYE
(verse)
I saw it on the calendar in April
By August, you'd have thought I'd be prepared
But when I saw that taxi through our office window
"Goodbye" was just too much for me to bear
(chorus)
I wish I could have found the strength to tell you that I'll miss you
But I couldn't even bring myself to try
My heart was feelin' awful weak
My lips were too afraid to speak
And my eyes couldn't let you see them cry
Please forgive me, but I could not say goodbye
(verse)
I know you've got a brand new job there waiting
An apartment with a great Pacific view
And we should watch for postcards in the mailroom
Maybe something from the San Diego Zoo
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
I never said I love you
I couldn't find a way
You thought you were just a friend
Leaving me today
(repeat chorus)
