Goodnight

Roy Orbison · Monument Singles A-Sides (1960-1964) [2011]

My Lovely woman child



I found you out running wild with someone new



You've been untrue



And everybody knows we're through



But I can't say goodbye to you



No matter what you do



My heart won't let you go



Although I know you go



With someone new, I think of you



I think of how you kiss



Your tenderness



With all of this



I miss the way you say goodnight



Bittersweet, your kisses



When my heart still misses



The way that things used to be



But I know you're strong for



Other arms you long for



And you can never come back to me



Not just for yesterday



Tonight or tomorrow



Ah, but forever



I'll hear you say goodnight, goodnight



Goodnight turned out to be a lie



And I can't help it if I cry



Goodnight my love



Sleep tight my love



Goodnight
