SOUTHSIDE JOHNNY & THE ASBURY JUKES
"Goodbye Love"
(B. Rush)

I better go
When it happens everyday, you know
You can't try and live on a diet of pain and harsh words

Love's not a trial
Ending in a walk down the aisle
You can't ever twist the hands, I don't care what you've heard

You made it seem so simple
You made it easy to live
But how could I know that purring in my bed
Was a kitten with a whip

Goodbye love - it's way past the moment
Goodbye love - stop trying
Goodbye love - can't drive it to the dead end
Fate will never unbend - goodbye love

Now I understand
When the money runs through my hands
I'll find myself all alone at the zero hour

Making love was so easy
Wearing diamonds and gold
How could I know that perched in my bed
Was a kitten with a whip

Goodbye love - it's way past the moment
Goodbye love - stop trying
Goodbye love - can't drive it to the dead end
Fate will never unbend - goodbye love

And when I turn off the lights
That's when it hits the hardest
My resolution starts slipping away
And my conviction just falls from the hip

Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
