Goodbye and I Love You



Carpenters





I have something to tell you

and I know it won't be easy

I've been thinking these past few days

it might be time to leave

You're like a stranger

then you're a lover

Never the same, always hard to believe



I'm caught between goodbye and I love you

Never knowing quite where I stand

I'm caught between goodbye and I love you

Falling both ways, nowhere to land



So constantly stranded

I can't understand it

This troubled life you've handed me

Is like the devil and the deep blue sea



If we go on much longer

If my doubts grow any stronger

Then I may have to let you go

If only to survive

Give me a reason, why should I stay here

I've tried too hard just to keep love alive
