I know they say if you love somebody
You should set them free (so they say)
But it sure is hard to do
Yeah, it sure is hard to do
And I know they say if they don’t come back again
Then it’s meant to be ( so they say)
But those words don’t pull me through
Cos I’m still in love with you
I spend each day here waiting for a miracle
But it’s just you and me goin through the mill
(climbin’ up a hill)
Chorus
This is the long goodbye
Somebody tell me why
Two lovers in love can’t make it
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
No matter how hard we try
You’re gonna make me cry
Come on, baby, it’s over.. Let’s face it
All that’s happening here is a long goodbye
