Kiss Me Goodbye

Kiss Me Goodbye

   We choose it, win or lose it. Love is never quite the same. I love you, now I*ve lost you. Don*t feel bad. You*re not to blame.
    So kiss me goodbye, and I*ll try not to cry. All the tears in the world won*t change your mind. There*s someone new and she*s waiting for you. Soon your heart will be leaving me behind. Linger¹ a while, then I*ll go with a smile. Like a friend who just happened to part. For the last time, pretend² you are mine. My darling, kiss me goodbye. I know now. I must go now, though my heart wants me to stay. That girl is your tomorrow. I belong to yesterday.
    My darling, kiss me goodbye.
