I Only Came To Say Goodbye

(album: Cliff Richard - 1965)

I only came to say goodbye
Because I hope to make you stay
Is it any wonder that I try
To stop you from going away

It can't be right to say good bye
I can't believe I'm just a friend
If we're merely friends, why should I cry?
Why should my life come to an end?

Don't you think you could call your friends
Tell them that you have missed your train
Then once again I could try to explain
Why you needn't go at all

Deep down inside we both must know
That you and I could ride so high
I know it is wrong to let you go
So I'll never say goodbye

Don't you think you could call your friends
Tell them that you've missed your train
Then once again I could try to explain
Why you needn't go at all

Deep down inside we both must know
That you and I could ride so high
I know it is wrong to let you go
So I'll never say goodbye
No, no, not goodbye
