The Long Goodbye - Single Version

I know they say if you love somebody
You should set them free
(So they say)
But it sure is hard to do
Yeah, it sure is hard to do

And I know they say if they don't come back again
Then it's meant to be
(So they say)
But those words ain't pulling me through
'Cause I'm still in love with you

I spend each day here waiting for a miracle
But it's just you and me going through the mill
Climbin' up a hill

This is the long goodbye, somebody tell me why
Two lovers in love can't make it
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
No matter how hard I try, you're gonna make me cry
Come on baby, it's over, let's face it
All that's happening here is a long goodbye

Sometimes I ask my heart did we really
Give our love a chance
(Just one more chance)
And I know without a doubt
I turned it inside out

And if we walked away
Would make more sense
(Only self defense)
But it tears me up inside
Just to think we still could try

How long must we keep riding on a carousel
Going round and round and never getting anywhere?
On a wing and prayer

This is the long goodbye, somebody tell me why
Two lovers in love can't make it
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
No matter how hard I try, you're gonna make me cry
Come on baby, it's over, let's face it
All that's happening here is the long goodbye

This is the long goodbye, somebody tell me why
Two lovers in love can't make it
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
No matter how hard I try, you're gonna make me cry
Come on baby, it's over, let's face it
All that's happening here is the long goodbye

Are you ever coming back again?
Are you ever coming back again?
Are you ever coming back again?
