Bobby Bare - I Hate Goodbyes lyrics

Softly close the door behind you How it hurts me to see you go Gently break the tie that binds you And this heart that loves you so. If you're sure you won't be staying Then just walk on out of my life There's just two words left for saying And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes. And nothing's born to live forever But oh, how it hurts to see it die First it's always then it's never And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes. Nothing's born to live forever But oh, how it hurts to see it die First it's always then it's never And the Lord knows how I hate goodbyes...
