Keating Ronan The Long Goodbye Lyrics

The Long Goodbye Lyrics

I know they say if you love somebody

 You should set them free (so they say)

 But it sure is hard to do

 Yeah, it sure is hard to do

 And I know they say if they don't come back again

 Then it's meant to be (so they say)

 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) 

 

 [Chorus]

 

 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)

 and I know without a doubt

 I turned it inside out

 And if we walked away

 would make more sense (only self defense)

 But it tears me up inside

 Just to think we still could try

 How long must we keep riding on a carousel

 Going round and round and never getting anywhere?

 (on a wing and prayer)

 

 [Chorus]

 

 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 the long goodbye

 

 [Chorus x2]

 

 The long goodbye

 The long goodbye

 This is the long goodbye

 

 Someone please tell me why

 

 Are you ever coming back again

 Are you ever coming back again

 Are you ever coming back again

 Guess I'm never coming back again
