If You're Leavin', Say Goodbye (Brandmeier/Caputo) |
LyricsIF YOU'RE LEAVING, SAY GOODBYEHere it comes, another morning without words Love is lonely when it's wrong Cos' I could say "Good Morning" and you'll look like you're not sure Love is lonely when it's gone, long gone, long gone So take that feeling over there, where I can't reach you, cos' you don't care Don't keep secrets, don't tell lies If you're leavin' , say goodbye Everyday I hear another distant cry Is it yours or is it mine? Can't even start a fight cos' you'll just let it lie Just another warning sign ...that you're not mine, you're not mine So, take that feeling over there, where I can't reach you, cos' you don't care Don't keep secrets, don't tell lies If you're leavin', say goodbye Why all those wasted nights staring at the ceiling When you could open up and tell me what you're feeling? What are you feelin'? Every night you're near I think of words unsaid All your thoughts and all your fears I reach to kiss, you close your eyes and turn your head Are you dreaming through those tears that you're not here? Oh no you're not here Well, take that feeling over there, where I can't reach you, Cos' you don't care Don't keep secrets, don't tell lies Take that feeling over there, where I can't reach you, If you don't care Don't keep secrets, don't tell lies If you're leavin', say goodbye Say Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye |
