The Way You Said Goodbye

Tell me, girl
If something came between us
Would you miss me like I miss you?

(Oh, oh girl)
I knew by the way
It was over between you and I
(I can't believe)

Last night we were alone
Just you and I together again
Good times like we've always known
It's so easy, girl, when you're lovers and friends

But something in the sound of my name
On your lips and the look in your eyes
Told me things would never be the same
Now I can't forget the way you said goodbye

The way you said (goodbye)
I knew right away it was over between you and I (goodbye)
How can I go on when I don't know the reasons why
The way you said goodbye

I looked back, it all seemed so clear
All the things you said that I didn't hear
Changes a few at a time
I didn't see damn, girl
How could I be so blind?

I thought she knew how much that I care
For you girl, yeah, you were my life
But just one word and love's no longer there
Tell me why I can't forget the way you said goodbye

The way you said (goodbye)
I knew right away it was over between you and I (goodbye)
How can I go on when I don't know the reasons why
Tell me why

I just won't take it
Give up without a fight
I can't forget the way you said goodbye, buh-buh bye-bye-bye

You know, I know I've been kind of far away lately
And I haven't given you the attention you deserve (over between)
But that's no excuse (you and I)
And I want you to know I'm sorry (goodbye)
Please give me one more chance

Give me one more chance my lady
The way you said goodbye
Goodbye (bye-bye-bye, bye)
I knew right away it was over between you and I (goodbye)
I can tell from the sound of your voice (how can I go on)
That I can't, that I can't go on without you
Give me a reason, girl (goodbye)

I knew, knew-knew, knew, knew, knew (oh, it was over between you and I, goodbye)
How can I go on when I don't know the reason why (goodbye)
