I Love a Long Goodbye

(C. MurphySloan)

And though no one knows for certain

Where or when

I'll draw the curtain

It's because it's been said that

I love a long goodbye

We broke it off

I've not forgotten

But I thought that this could be

An opportunity for us to try

To examine my reluctant leaving

Since I'm sad and if you're lonesome call

I love a long goodbye

OooohThat's unworthy of me

Mind youI need to know you love me

Look at things from my perspective please

Just what about me makes my motives seem

So hard to justify

Talk to me tomorrow

I might have another story

I'll make sure

I doI love a long goodbye

OooohThat's unworthy of me

Mind youI need to know you love me

Goodbye, you

Can know this for certain

I love you

And I hate to draw the curtain
