Goodbye Love

Sweet Maria, one leg out the window

Waiting to escape by light of moon

Can I spend a little longer with the other?

Does it have to run so soon?

Little Claudia, I can't speak your language

And I don't mean to be unkind

But when you put your hand upon your belly

I don't want to know what's on your mind

And you, my dear, the fairest of the blossoms

Though you only bloom at night

You're at my side in sports and shorts in daytime

Dear Alex, let our love lie in the light

My mother used to say

You gotta find somewhere to stay

And the more you love, the more you leave behind

Well I can't say she was wrong

And my love for you is strong

But I'm afraid I must be on, goodbye love

Goodbye love, goodbye love, goodbye love
