I Hate Goodbyes

Softly close the door behind you

How it hurts me to see you go

Gently break the tie that binds you

And this heart that loves you so.

If you're sure you won't be staying

Then just walk on out of my life

There's just two words left for saying

And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes.

And nothing's born to live forever

But oh, how it hurts to see it die

First it's always then it's never

And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes.

Nothing's born to live forever

But oh, how it hurts to see it die

First it's always then it's never

And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes...
