Say Goodbye

(альбом: Human Frailty - 1986)

Well just the other night I come home
After three months of constant grind and travel
And I went snivelling
I went crawling around to my girlfriend's house
And she came down hard upon me
And she ground her finger into my breastbone
And she said
She said: "You don't make me feel... like I'm a woman... anymore
And you don't make me feel like I'm a woman any more
You don't make me feel like I'm a woman any more

And I know
I know it's been a long time
Seems like it's been go-ing on forever
And my heart
My heart is beating
too big

It's beating too big for the space that's meant to hold it
So good-night
Goodnight my little lovely
As we turn
As we turn down the lights
Say good-bye

Goodbye to the naked truth
Your skin is looking weary
And your eyes are closing down on the day
I know, I know it's been a long time
Seems like it's been going on forever

But just as black is white
Yeah and just as night is day
The light is going to leave you
And you're gonna fade away
So goodnight, goodbye my lovely
As we turn, as we turn down the lights
Say goodnight, goodnight to the naked truth
Your skin is looking weary
And your eyes are closing down on the day
