Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Close your heart, close your eyes
Fake a kiss and say goodbye
When you know it's not the way
And you're leavin' home today
[Verse 2]
Anger rises, the deed is done
Just to say you can't go on
When you know that's not the way
Yet you're leavin' home today
If I see a tear in your eye it's an easy way
To say goodbye
[Verse 3]
You're afraid so you lie
Sometimes this will get you by
But you know that's not the way
And I trust you anyway
Harmony but not for long
Plain to see we're doing something wrong
Even though you've gone away
I still love you
[Verse 4]
But if I see a tear in your eye it's an easy way
To say goodbye, oh, oh
To say goodbye, oh, oh, goodbye
To say goodbye
[Verse 5]
Sent you Rilke by hand
Hopin' you would understand
Don't you know that's not my way
I was missin' you today, mmm-mmm-mmm
[Verse 6]
Anger rises the deed is done
Just to say that you can't go on
When you know that's not my way
'Cause I still love you
After all we've said and done
Can't you see we can't go on?
'Cause God knows there's no easy way
To say goodbye
