(C. MurphySloan)



And though no one knows for certain

Where or when I'll draw the curtain

It's because it's been said that

I love a long goodbye



We broke it off I've not forgotten

But I thought that this could be

An opportunity for us to try



To examine my reluctant leaving

Since I'm sad and if you're lonesome call

I love a long goodbye



Ooooh

That's unworthy of me

Mind you

I need to know you love me



Look at things from my perspective please

Just what about me makes my motives seem

So hard to justify



Talk to me tomorrow

I might have another story

I'll make sure I do

I love a long goodbye



Ooooh

That's unworthy of me

Mind you

I need to know you love me

Goodbye, you

Can know this for certain

I love you

And I hate to draw the curtain
