"The Goodbye Girl" lyrics - HOOTIE & THE BLOWFISH

All your life you've waited
For love to come and stay
And now that I have found you
I must not slip away
I know its hard believing
The words you heard before
Darling you must trust them please
Trust them just once more

'Cause baby goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye
Doesn't mean we'll never be together again
If you wake up and I'm not there
I won't be long away oh
And all the things you do my goodbye girl
Will bring me back to you

I know you've been taken
Afraid to hurt again
You fight the love you feel for me
Instead of giving in
I can wait forever oh
Helping you to see
That I was meant for you my love
And you were meant for me

Remember goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye
Doesn't mean we'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart
You still have my heart
So forget your past my goodbye girl
Now your home at last... at last

Though we maybe so far apart
You still have my heart
So forget your past my goodbye girl
Now your home at last oh
It doesnt mean forever
Goodbye doesnt mean we'll never be together oh

Goodbye doesnt mean forever
We remember goodbye

Goodbye Goodbye girl
