Goodbye Lyrics - The Absence - Melody Gardot

Goodnight was just a little word you learned 

Somewhere somebody that you burned 

Was all too happy with a lie 

But love, you know you never got it right 

I don't know why you say goodnight 

You only mean to say goodbye 

And i know you quick to show your lover to the door 

And you ain't never been in love before 

You're only bound to get it wrong 

And I know you're just a victim of your circumstance 

I never know in any real romance 

And so we ought to say so long, goodbye, so long 

I know you're only trying to ease my mind 

But I'm-a lay it on the line, this time 

You only need to say goodbye
