I Have The Strangest Feeling (You're Gone)

(album: Whatever I Say Means I Love You - 1975)

You just kissed me good morning
So I know you're standing there
But can you hear the sounds
Before goodbye and nobody cares
Maybe I'm wrong
But I have the strangest feeling you're gone

What was that you said to me
My mind was out to play
With some memories I saved up
Especially for this kind of day
Guess I'm wrong
But I have the strangest feeling you're gone

There's no need to hide it
We're just putting off the pain
And goodbye ain't so bad
It's just a different kind of rain
Like lonely dewdrops on a daisy
When the evening sun goes down
Or like hearing footsteps echo in an empty neon town

Go on and get it over with
If can't hurt me anymore
Than these transparent blindfolds that love put on before
Wish I was wrong
But I have the strangest feeling you're gone

Go on and built a better world
I'll do what I can with mine
Maybe someday we can love again
At some other place or time

Goodbye, darling
I have the strangest feeling you're gone
Goodbye, darling
I have the strangest feeling you're gone
Goodbye, hoss...
