Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can't forget the night you told me that you loved me
The stars were shinin' so bright
How could I constantly resist you when your lips were sweet
And your arms held me tight?
[Verse 2]
You said you'd give me your heart
But you just lied to me from the start
Won't you please, please stop pretending
And just say goodbye?
[Verse 3]
No, I won't sigh and I won't cry
You're not my guy, just say goodbye
[Verse 4]
I can't forget how soft your voice was when you told me
You needed my sweet caress
And when you begged me for my love
I thought at last I'd found my whole life's happiness
[Verse 5]
You said you'd give me your heart
But you just lied to me from the start
Won't you please, please stop pretending
And just say goodbye?
[Verse 6]
No, I won't sigh and I won't cry
You're not my guy, just say goodbye
Just say goodbye, you're not my guy
So just say goodbye
