Artist/Band: Ronnie Milsap
Lyrics for Song: I'm No Good at Goodbyes
Lyrics for Album: Night Things [RCA Victor] [1975]



(Ben Peters)



You don't have to tell me that it's over

For lately I can see it in your eyes

And I'll be gone when you wake up this morning

'Cause darling, I'm no good at goodbyes.



I know we had the good things while it lasted

It's sad to see a good love when it dies

But the teardrops only make it hard for leaving

And darling, I'm no good at goodbyes.



Although it breaks my heart to write this letter

I know someday that you will realize

That when it hurts so much this way is better

And darling, I'm no good at goodbyes.



Oh darling, I'm no good at goodbyes...


I'm No Good at Goodbyes

The track reflects the emotional depth characteristic of his mid-seventies recordings, showcasing his signature vocal clarity and the polished production values that would later define his career.
