Lyrics

Farewell, my love
Farewell, my love
I love you more than anything
No one knows the good you bring to me
But I've got to set you free (boo-oo)
I've just got to set you free (boo-oo)
Aww, goodbye, (goodbye) my love (my love)
I'm gonna cry, (gonna cry) my love (my love)
The vow of love you broke 'em
The law of love has spoken to you
Oh, why couldn't you be true? (Why couldn't you be true?)
Why couldn't you be true? (Why couldn't you be true?)
(Farewell) So long, baby, (my love) you know, it's so hard
It's really hard to find someone in this wide world, who's really true
I guess it's just meant for me to be unhappy
But I believe, I really do believe that somewhere someone is waiting for me
Aww, she's there, (she's there) my love (my love)
Somewhere, (somewhere) my love (my love)
Someone who cares
And still be there with me
Oh, my darling can't you see? (Boo-oo)
How wonderful it would be, yeah (boo-oo)
Farewell, to you
Farewell, my love
We're through
We're through
