Goodbye

©2006 Elmo Taylor Recordings

Written By: David Rhodes

I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to make you cry
You don’t know how I can leave
And your still asking why
That’s part of the problem
That you can’t see
You thought more about yourself
Than you ever did of me

            Goodbye

I know there were reasons
And I always understood
But you had your chances to change things
But you never would
You tell me that you can
And it’s almost time
But I don’t care anymore
You’re gone and I’m fine

            Goodbye
           
                        Goodbye to heartache
                        Goodbye to pain
                        Goodbye to being alone again
                        Goodbye to sadness
                        Goodbye to misery
                        Goodbye to crying myself to sleep

            Goodbye

You ask if I’ve found someone else
The answer’s yes
It took some time and a little help
But I found myself

            Goodbye

                        Goodbye to heartache
                        Goodbye to pain
                        Goodbye to being along again
                        Goodbye to sadness
                        Goodbye to misery
                        Goodbye to crying myself to sleep

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Turn yourself on around now, and get on outta here
There’s nothing you have to say that I want to hear

You have nothing left that you can say
Cause I found myself when you left that day.
