Goodbye Lyrics - Prince

Last night when I left U fast asleeping 

I should have contemplated suicide 

4 the smile upon your face that's well worth keeping 

By morning - smears 4 every tear U cry 

I could manage a week or 2 without those kisses 

It'd be hard, but something tells me I could try 

CHORUS: 

4 that matter, whatever 2 make U reconsider 

Is there truth when U make love 2 a lie? 

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye? 

Why'd I ever let U in this morning? 

Why'd I let U come inside my door? 

I should have known without that smile adorning 

Your face - a kiss was not what U came 4 

That's when your hand reached out 2 touch me gently 

At least that's how it happened in my mind

CHORUS 

Can't begin 2 understand how I think about U (Everything) 

Everything I wanna do, I cannot do without U 

However wrong U want - I'll be 

Just please (please) don't leave (Don't leave) 

If it means this life without U, baby 

I swear I'll spend it on my knees 

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye? 

Last night when I left U I was so sure 

We'd be 2gether 4ever and 4 days 

And now my shade of blue couldn't get no bluer 

I don't even know what I did 2 make U go away 

I could possibly stage a front and play the cool one (Cool one) 

Heart in my hand tryin' 2 hold back every cry 

Photos 

But who would applaud me when it's U, my one and only 

Who ever gave me a good reason not 2 die 

Excuse me, but is this really... (Goodbye) 

Excuse me, but is this really... (Goodbye) 

Excuse me, but is this really goodbye? 

(Goodbye) 

Goodbye, goodbye 

(Goodbye) 

Goodbye (Goodbye)
