Goodbye (I Can’t Say)

A Pastiche of Celine Dion’s Goodbye’s (The Saddest Word)

Babe,
I gave you love
Gave you all I had

Babe,
All you had to do
Was to love me back

Now I know
There was never
Love between us

And I never imagined
That the one I adored
Someday must leave
And I must say goodbye

Goodbye’s the saddest word I'll have to say
Goodbye I have to watch you walk away
Someday you were to go and make me cry
It breaks my heart for me to say goodbye.

Babe,
You gave love to me
Turned a naïve one into a lover

Babe,
All I ever needed
Was you loving me back

‘Cause babe,
There is no other
Love like a girl’s for her first love

And it hurts so
That love so strong
Someday will be gone, and say goodbye

Goodbye’s the saddest word I'll have to say
Goodbye I have to watch you walk away
Someday you were to go and make me cry
It breaks my heart for me to say goodbye.

Babe the love you gave me will always live
You’ll always be there every time I close my eyes
You are to me the greatest love I ever knew
You took my weakness and you made me strong
And I will always love you ‘til I grow old

And when you come calling
I’ll be here waiting for you
I’ll be here my whole life through
I’ll be there this I promise, waiting for you,

Babe,
I’ll be your bosom when the others leave
I’ll be your fallback and rebound
I’ll be your hope when all is gone
And I will love you ‘til forever comes

Goodbye’s the word I can’t say
Goodbye but my heart holds you dear
Today you said that word and I’ll always cry
It breaks my heart I can’t goodbye

I hope we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye.
