Go And Say Goodbye Lyrics - Retrospective: The Best Of Buffalo Springfield - Buffalo Springfield

You ask me to read this letter 

That you wrote the night before 

And you really should know better 

'Cause she's worth a whole lot more 

Brother, you know you can't run away and hide 

Is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why 

You won't go and say goodbye 

Then you said the fault was yours 

And when you really were to blame 

'Cause as if to close the doors 

And to hide away in shame 

Brother, you know you can't run away and hide 

Is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why 

You won't go and say goodbye 

Yes, and why, tell me why 

Can't you see that it's not right 

It's a lie, it's a lie 

Don't hide your sorrow in the night 

Brother, you know you can't run away and hide 

Is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why 

You won't go and say goodbye 

And you know the pain is double 

But for her it's even worse 

You must face her with the trouble 

'Though it's hurting like a curse 

Brother, you know you can't run away and hide 

Is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why 

You won't go and say 

Brother, you know you can't run away and hide 

Is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why 

You won't go and say 

Gonna go and say, gonna go and say goodbye
