If we gave it just one more try Maybe we could stop this goodbye I know through all this pain Baby just breathe in, breathe out Before you turn around, just slow down Think of all the love we've made Somehow somewhere love remains So baby just breathe

This is the long goodbye Somebody tell me why Two lovers in love can't make it Just what kinda love keeps breaking a heart No matter how hard I try I always make you cry Come on, baby, it's over let's face it All that's happening here is a long goodbye

Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye Girl look at you right
