Goodbye - Prince

Last night when I left you fast a sleeping

I should have contemplated suicide

For the smile upon your face that’s well worth keeping

By morning smears for every tear you cry

I could manage a week or two without those kisses

It’d be hard, but something tells me I could try

For that matter, whatever to make you reconsider

Is there truth when you make love to a lie?

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye?

Why did I ever let you in this morning?

Why didI let you come inside my door?

I should have known without that smile adorning your face

A kiss was not what you came for

That’s when your hand reached out to touch me gently

At least that’s how it happened in my mind

For that matter, whatever to make you reconsider

Is there truth when you make love to a lie?

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye?

You can’t begin to understand how I think about you

(Everything)

Everything I want to do, I cannot do without you

However wrong you want, I’ll be

Just please don’t leave

(Don't leave)

If it means this life without you, baby

I swear I’ll spend it on my knees

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye?

Last night when I left you I was so sure

We’d be together forever and four days

And now my shade of blue couldn’t get no bluer

I don’t even know what I did to make you go away

I could possibly stage a front and play the cool one

(Cool one)

Heart in my hand trying to hold back every cry

But who would applaud me when it’s you, my one and only

Who ever gave me a good reason not to die

Excuse me, but is this really…

(Goodbye)

Excuse me, but is this really…

(Goodbye)

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye?

(Goodbye)

Goodbye, goodbye

(Goodbye)

Goodbye

(Goodbye)
