Baby, Say Goodbye

Sometimes I still think of what you said
The promises you made, meant to keep,
Still rattle round and round inside my head
So I wonder how you sleep
Sometimes I still dream about you, baby
The picture-perfect life that we believed
You wanted me to come, “don’t say maybe”
But I have been deceived

So make that call
Tell me that you’re sorry
Say goodbye, baby
Say goodbye

You bumble inanely one line to the next
And hope your last one never catches you
So maybe it’s been workin for the best
Maybe I’ve got a line on you
Sometimes I still think about your voices
Callin’ to me on a young man’s phone
And through the illusions of easy choices
I was left nothing but alone

So make that call
Tell me that you’re sorry
Say goodbye, baby
Say goodbye

And I’m sure you’re shining on
Another diamond light in a charcoal sky
And I’m sure you’re moving on
To another choice, another voice, another . . .

I’m not going to say it this time.

Sometimes I still think of what you said
The promises you might have meant to keep
They rattle round and round inside my head
I still wonder how you sleep
Sometimes I still dream about you, baby
In weaker moments when I’m feeling down
Think I’ll answer when you call? Maybe
But I don’t need you around

So make that call
Tell me that you’re sorry
Say goodbye, baby
Say goodbye
