GOODBYE TO YOU by Tom Jensen
All dark and depressing thoughts
It's fun to watch them all fade
Still I can sense your voice calling me
But I can't hear a word you say
Well, I hit rock bottom --
But that was yesterday
Evil thoughts, yeah, I fought 'em --
Until I finally drove them all away
When I thought
you got the heart, honey
Is when I gave you my soul
That's when I bought
you this rock, baby
But I watched as down
into the gutter it rolled
When I thought
you got the rhythm, darling
That's when I thought
I got rid of my blues
When I let you lead me on
by your string, sweetie
But just when I thought
of tying the knot...
You turned it into a noose
Sure, of course, I sing the blues
And still I tell sad stories
But at least they're
not from my shoes
And I did it all by myself
Without any help from you
And now I've found someone else
Someone whose vowed
to help see me through
But I could only say hello to her
After I said goodbye to you...
