Lyrics

The goodbye girl

She was a good girl,
always trying to please
To be the liked girl,
seemed her destiny

She was safe and sound
secure in love she'd found
Had her head up in the clouds
With nothing left to doubt

And she said:
Hey I know where I'm at
Hey I know what I'm doing
Hey just leave it at that
I know where I'm going

Then it changed her
The games that she would play
It rearranged her
To a stranger girl one day

She was lost not found
Her love gone to ground
She would lie not cry
To avoid the sad goodbye

when she'd say
Hey I know where I'm at
Hey I know what I'm doing
Hey just leave it at that
I know where I'm going

To different places, with different faces
Different days, different ways
Different chases, no airs and graces
Just a change from yesterdays

And she said
