The Love Goodbye Lyrics

A-ha The Love Goodbye

Once a girl
In mommy's world
Laughing, rhyming, singing songs
In her newly learned tongue

Oh

Now a girl
In this world
Married to a stranger's name
Writing to him all the same

Oh but where can she go
If she's going?
Alone
Where can she go
If she's going alone?
Where can she go to avoid
The love goodbye?

Oh

All the same
Letters answer letters
In a round about way
"Sweet darling" they commence,
But she no longer feels that way

Oh there's not a soul
In the streets below
Sitting by the window,
Clinging to the phone
Dialing endless numbers
No reply
Love goodbye.

Where can she go
If she's going?
Alone
Where can she go
If she's going?
Where can she go if she's going alone?
She's going alone
She's going...
