The Long Goodbye

I know they say if you love somebody
should you set them free

but it sure is hard to do, sure is hard to do
I know they say if it dont come back again
then its meant to be

Those words dont pull me through

cause Im still in love with you
I spend each day here waitin for a miracle

But its just you and me goin through the mill
climbin up a hill
this is the long goodbye
somebody tell me why,
two lovers in love cant make it,
just what kinda love keeps breakin her heart
no matter how hard I try, Ill always make you cry
come on baby, its over lets face it
all thats happenin here is a long goodbye

sometimes I ask my heart did we really
give our love a chance

but I know without a doubt, we turned it inside out
and if we walked away would it make more sense

but it tears me up inside, just to think we still could try
how long must we keep runnin on a carousel

goin round and round and never gettin anywhere
on a wing and prayer
this is the long goodbye
somebody tell me why,
two lovers in love cant make it,
just what kinda love keeps breakin her heart
no matter how hard I try, Ill always make you cry
come on baby, its over lets face it
all thats happenin here is a long goodbye

oh, long goodbye
