We thought that love was over, That we were really through., I said I
didn’t love her, That we’d begin anew, And you can all believe
me, We sure intended to, But we just couldn’t say goodbye. The
chairs and then the sofa, They broke right down and cried, The curtains
started wavin’ For me to come inside, I tell you confidentially, The
tears were hard to hide, And we just couldn’t say goodbye. The clock was
striking twelve o’clock. It Smiled on us below. With folded hands it
seemed to say, We’ll miss you if you go. So I went back and kissed
her And when I looked around, The room was singin’ love songs And
dancin’ up and down. And now we’re both so happy, Because at last
we’ve found, That we just couldn’t say goodbye.
