Artist/Band: Porter Wagoner
Lyrics for Song: They Listened While You Said Goodbye
Lyrics for Album: Green Green Grass of Home (RCA Camden) [1968]



(Harlan Howard)



(Listen, listen, listen, they're saying goobye.)



The birds stop their singing when I'm passing by

And even the flowers just stand there and cry

But they know the reason I have tears in my eyes

They listened while you said goodbye.



The sun has stopped shining the moon hides its face

He promised so much now he hides in disgrace

I guess all creation was there last night

They listened while you said goodbye.



You say what you're seeking is over the hill

That I'll find a new love but I never will

For you didn't know my whole world stood still

And listened while you said goodbye.



--- Instrumental ---



You say what you're seekin' is over the hill

That I'll find a new love but I never will

For you didn't know my whole world stood still

And listened while you said goodbye...
