Don't Say Goodbye Again - Lyrics

Girl don’t you say
Girl don’t you make
Girl don’t you make
Make me cry
Make me cry

You had my life
In the palm of your hand
Why you threw it away
I’ll never ever understand
You took away the best part
The best part of me
You took away, you
How cruel could you be
You’re just another heartache
I’ve got to learn to take
You’re just another habbit
I have to learn to break
Am I alone again
Am I alone again
Am I alone, alone, alone

Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t make me cry, cry, cry
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t make me cry, cry, cry, again
Again, again

The more I try the more you hurt me
Why
Tell me why
Tell me why

I can take an aspirin
For a bad headache
But what pill for loneliness can I take
I can seal to you
Just like cellophane
But I need you, baby
Like a star needs fame
You’re not another habbit
I have to learn to break
Let’s try to patch it up
Before it’s too late
I’m in love with you
I’m in love with you
I’m in love, in love, in love

Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t make me cry, cry, cry
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t say goodbye again
Don’t make me cry, cry, cry, again

The more I try the more you hurt me
Why
Tell me why
Tell me why
