How Can I Help You To Say Good-bye Lyrics - Loveless Patty

Throught the back window of a `59 wagon 

I watch my best friend Janey slippin further away 

I kept on waving, til I couldn't see her 

And through my tears I ask again why we counldn't stay 

Mama wispered softly, time will ease your pain 

Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same 

And she said, how can I help you to say good-bye 

It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 

Come let me hold you and I will try 

How can I help you to say good-bye 

I sit on our bed 

He packs his suitcase 

I help a picture of our wedding day 

His hands were trembling 

We both were crying 

He kissed me gently, then he quickly walked away 

I called up mama, she said time will ease your pain 

Life's about chaning, nothering ever satys the same 

And she said, how can I help you to say good-bye 

It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 

Come let me hold you, and I will try 

How can I help you to say good-bye 

Sitting with mama, 

Alone in her bedroom 

She opened her eyes, and then squeezed my hand 

She said, I have to go now 

My time here is over 

And with her final words, she tried to help me understand 

Mama wispered softly, time will ease your pain 

Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same 

And she said, how can I help you to say good-bye 

It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 

Come let me hold you, and I will try 

How can I help you, 

To say good-bye
