Just Because

"Ah, remember this?

Why, I must have been thirteen when this came out!

Or was it fourteen?

Or was it twenty-two?

I could have been twelve actually."



just because you left and said goodbye,

do you think that I will sit and cry?

Even if my heart should tell me so,

darling, I would rather let you go.



Just because I want someone who's kind,

with a heart as good and pure as mine.

But maybe I am asking for too much,

darling, please don't ever break my heart.



I know you think you're smart,

just runnin' around breaking lovers hearts.



Just because you left and said goodbye, hey!

Do you think that I will sit and cry?

Even if my heart should tell me so,

darling, I would rather let you go.



Uh-uh-uh -



"this is doctor winston o'boggie saying goodnight

from record plant east, new york.

We hope you had a swell time!

Ev'rybody here says "hi".

Goodbye."



just because you left and said goodbye,

do you think that I will sit and cry?

Even if my heart should tell me so,

darling, I would rather let you go.



Uh-uh-uh -

goodbye!

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh -

so long!

Been a long year!
