I'm Not That Good At Goodbye

(album: The Classic Style Of Lefty Frizzell - 1975)

I don't want to talk it over one more time
No there's not much use in talking
If you've made up your mind
And darling, I don't need to tell you why
You know that I'm not that good at goodbye

Please, don't tell me you're leaving if you go
Just let me turn my head while you walk out the door
'Cause if I see you leaving I will die
You know that I'm not that good at goodbye

Lord goodbyes just make it harder anyhow
So if you really feel like leaving do it now
And let me keep a little of my pride
You know that I'm not that good at goodbye

I don't want to know you're leaving when you go
'Cause if we reach the part where you're standing at the door
Well, I know I'd just break down again and cry
You know that I'm not that good at goodbye
