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, 
but it sure is hard to do
I know they
say if it don't come back again
then it's meant to be (so they say)
Those
words don't pull me 
through cause I'm still in love with you
I spend
each day here waitin' for a miracle
But it's just you and me goin' 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 kinda love keeps
breakin' a heart
no matter how hard I try, Your gonna make me cry
come on
baby, it's over...let's face it
all that's happenin' here is a long
goodbye

sometimes I ask my heart did we really ...
...give our love a
chance 
(Just the one more chance)
but I know without a doubt, that we
turned it inside out
and if we walked away would it make more sense (only
self defense)
but it tears me up inside, just to think we still could
try
how long must we keep runnin' on a carousel
goin' round and round and
never gettin' anywhere
on a wing and prayer

repeat chorus

oh,
long goodbye
