Earle Stacey Good-by Lyrics

Good-by Lyrics

When you left me last summer

You took everything

When you came back to me

You asked me everything about everything



You asked me if

There was somebody new

How could there be

My heart was with you



When you said, "good-by

I'm leaving you

Oh, good-by, I'm leaving you

Oh, yes, good-by, I'm leaving you, good-by"



So, why did you come back

Was it for the rest of me

I already told you

You would always get the best of me, there's nothin' left of me



Didn't leave me nothin'

I could use

Well, maybe the last words

I heard from you



Ain't nothin' gonna

Change my mind

I'm leaving your heart

But, takin' mine



Now, that's somethin'

I can use

Take my heart

Find someone new



I'm taking my heart now

And, let it slowly heal

Right now, my heart

Just don't know how to feel



But give it a little time

Someone to treat it kind

It needs to build some trust

My heart's been through so much



It just said, "good-by"

Oh, it just said, "good-by"

Oh, good-by

I'm leaving you, good-by"
