Artist/Band: Statler Brothers
Lyrics for Song: The Last Goodbye
Lyrics for Album: Bed of Roses [Mercury] [1970]



(Harold Reid, Don Reid, Phil Balsley, Lew DeWitt)



Afraid her tears might move my mind

I decided to drop her a line

Because where she's concerned

I just ain't strong.



I couldn't look her in the eye

And say our last goodbye

I tried it time and time before

But it went wrong.



So in this letter she will find

All the things that's on my mind

And I'm sure she'll find the man

To do her right.



I know Jim and Bill will be

Happy that she's free

Chances are she'll be booked up

Every night.



And see things she'd never see

Tied down to a guy like me

There's a better side of life

She's never known.



And I know she'll be alright

Once I'm gone out of her life

She may not

Even realize I'm gone.



So I wrote it down this time

And I read it line for line

But it didn't read just like

I meant it to.



All the things I meant to say

Came out sounding some other way

All the goodbye's came out

Sounding I love you.



All the goodbye's came out

Sounding I love you...
