I know they say if you love somebody You should set them free But it sure is hard to do But sure is hard to do I know they say if they don't come back again It's meant to be But those words ain't pulling me through Cos I'm still in love with you
I spend each day here waiting for a miracle But it's just you and me going through the mill climbin' up a hill
This is the long goodbye Somebody tell me why Two lovers in love can't make it Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart? No matter how hard I try You're gonna make me cry Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it All that's happening here is a long goodbye
Sometimes I ask my heart did we really Give our love a chance (just one more chance) But I know without a doubt That we turned it inside out If we walked away Would it make more sense (it's only self defense) But it tears me up inside Just to think we still could try
How long must we keep riding on this carousel Going round and round and never getting anywhere on a wing and prayer
This is the long goodbye Somebody tell me why Two lovers in love can't make it Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart? No matter how hard we try You're gonna make me cry Come on, baby, it's over, Let's face it All that's happening here is the long goodbye

This is the long goodbye Somebody tell me why Two lovers in love can't make it Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart? No matter how hard we try You're gonna make me cry Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it All that's happening here is a long goodbye
Too long goodbye, oh So long goodbye
Someone please tell me why Are you ever coming back again
