We kissed goodnight And we turned out the lights And lay side by side in the dark And were waiting for sleep or a spark But the nights on the run And the spark does not come And we quietly worry and wonder And the silence is louder than thunder And it rings with the sound of goodbye It rings with the sound of goodbye I cant even tell you just why It may be the truth or it may be a lie But it sounds like the sound of goodbye We can talk of the weather We can talk of the news We can talk of the talk of the town Theres another true love going down We can talk about promises Talk about lies But theres no use in pointing our fingers And the sound of I love you still lingers And it rings with the sound of goodbye It rings with the sound of goodbye I cant even tell you just why It may be the truth and it may be a lie But it sounds like the sound of goodbye
