Langhorne Slim I Love You But Goodbye
Why did you come?
You can't stay forever
How could you leave me all
alone on this Earth
Who was I before you?
I can't remember
Why couldn't I have been the one to
Leave here first?
I love you but goodbye
I love you but goodbye
No words of wisdom
Can make me feel better
I'm having hard days and I
Curse the night
Maybe I'll fly far away
Just to forget her
Perhaps I'll stay right where I am and
Get on with my life
She said I love you but goodbye
I love you but goodbye
A bird with clipped wings can still sing but can no
longer fly
What am I here for?
Who makes the decision?
For every beginning
There must come an end
I want to thank you darling
For all that you've given
I want to thank you, thank you
For being my friend
She said I love you but goodbye
I love you but goodbye
And I love you but goodbye
A bird with clipped wings can still sing but can no
longer fly
