Langhorne Slim - I Love You, But Goodbye lyrics

Why did you come? If you can't stay forever How could you leave me all alone on this Earth Who was I before you? I can't remember Why couldn't I have been the one to Leave here first? I love you but goodbye I love you but goodbye No words of wisdom Can make me feel better Lately I'm having hard days and I I curse the night Maybe I'll fly far away And try to forget her Maybe I'll stay right where I am and get on with my life She said I love you but goodbye I love you but goodbye A bird with clipped wings can still sing But can no longer fly What are we here for? Who makes the decision? For every beginning There must come an end I want to thank you darling For all that you've given I want to thank you, thank you for being my friend And I love you but goodbye I love you but goodbye I love you but goodbye I love you but goodbye
