"ah, remember this?
why, i must have been thirteen when this came out!
or was it fourteen?
or was it twenty-two?
i could have been twelve actually."
just because you left and said goodbye,
do you think that i will sit and cry?
even if my heart should tell me so,
darling, i would rather let you go.
just because i want someone who's kind,
with a heart as good and pure as mine.
but maybe i am asking for too much,
darling, please don't ever break my heart.
i know you think you're smart,
just runnin' around breaking lovers hearts.
just because you left and said goodbye, hey!
do you think that i will sit and cry?
even if my heart should tell me so,
darling, i would rather let you go.
uh-uh-uh -
"it's too late darling;
you just gotta say goodbye.
why, the last time i saw you... you were wearing man's clothes.
not that i'm prejudiced, but you know...?
but who am i to hassle you like this? i'm just gonna have to let you go."
"there's two basses in this; i hope you appreciate it.
this is doctor winston o'boggie saying goodnight
from record plant east, new york.
we hope you had a swell time!
ev'rybody here says hi...
goodbye."
just because you left and said goodbye,
do you think that i will sit and cry?
even if my heart should tell me so,
darling, i would rather let you go.
uh-uh-uh, goodbye!
uh-uh-uh, so long!
been a long year!
