The Way Lovers Say Goodbye (feat. Caroline Homer & Jamie Paschal)

So long ago I can't remember
In October or November
You made everything seem new
I couldn't get enough of you

I don't need an explanation
Leave on public transportation
That's the way that
Lovers say goodbye

Those days that started with a kiss
Became years of wedded bliss
You'd make me laugh with just one look
Life was a bestselling book

Don't cry a river, don't sing the blues
Just pack your stuff and find your shoes

Don't bother with a long post-mortem
You let me deal with my own boredom
That's the way that
Lovers say goodbye

Time conspired to slowly change us
We didn't see it rearrange us
I'd try to please you but just annoy
And then I saw that other boy

No need to call me on the phone
I'll figure this thing out alone

Spend one last long night together
Then say goodbye once more forever
That's the way that lovers say goodbye

Don't waste my time with this and that
I'll keep the dog you take the cat

I would've loved you 'til the end
But probably can't be your new best friend

Kiss me sweet, don't tell me why
Then out the door with the other guy

That's the way that
Lovers say goodbye

That's the way that
Lovers say goodbye

That's the way that
Lovers say goodbye
