We thought that love was over That we were really through I said that I didn't love him That we'd begin anew And you can all believe me We sure intend to do But we just couldn't say goodbye
The chair and then the sofa Broke right down and cried The curtains started waving For him to come inside I tell you confidentiality The tears were hard to hide And we just couldn't say goodbye
The clock was striking 12 o'clock It smiled on us below With folded hands It seemed to say We'll miss you if you go
So he came back and kissed me And when I looked around The room was singin' love songs And dancin' up and down Now we're both so happy because at last we found That we just couldn't say goodbye
People in love are funny Mighty hard to explain One minute they quarrel Then they're back together again Take my case for instance We had a little fun Listen ladies and gentlemen Here's what happened to us
And you can all believe me That we sure intend to do
The chair and then the sofa Broke right down and cried
I tell you confidentiality The tears were hard to hide
The clock was striking 12 o'clock It smiled on us below With folded hands It seemed to say We're gonna miss you if you go
So he came back and kissed me And when I looked around The room was singin' love songs And dancin' up and down Now we're both so happy because at last we found That we just couldn't say goodbye
