From the recording Fishin’ For Your Love
Lyrics
VERSE
Hand in hand; layin’ woman to man
Love can seem so real
But something wasn’t right when she looked me in the eye
Straightaway said goodbye
CHORUS
(Now) (But) (Yeah) There’s not one good reason why
She resigned from my life
I know a man ain’t supposed to cry
But there’s nothin’ good about goodbye
VERSE
Heart to heart; livin’ large
The love was free of charge
But the price got high; thought I was gonna die
When she looked at me and said goodbye
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
I got to thinkin’ ’bout the word “goodbye”
And what it oughta mean to me
Then I remembered what my mama said
’Bout all those fishes in the sea
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
No, there’s nothin’ good about goodbye
