| No need for flutes or violins
|
| 'Cause they won’t mean a thing
|
| When everything’s been said
|
| No need for fancy cards or flowery prose
|
| Though I suppose
|
| They make us feel less bad
|
| No need for long, drawn-out explaining
|
| How and when, and why, this love came to an end
|
| No need to to tell me so sincerely
|
| You still want to be my friend
|
| It’s a goodbye song
|
| A little bitter, but it’s sweet
|
| You always wanted one
|
| It comes a little late, but it’s complete
|
| It’s from the heart
|
| Please remember: I love you dearly
|
| Although we have to part
|
| No need to gather up the evidence
|
| To justify the emptiness inside
|
| No need to pray and turn for guidance to the Providence:
|
| It simply won’t provide
|
| No need to ask your friends
|
| For well-intentioned Good Advice
|
| They’re happy to oblige
|
| (And though I know you want to)
|
| No need to promise we will work it out
|
| And start again
|
| Let’s simply turn the page
|
| It’s a goodbye song
|
| A little bitter, but it’s sweet
|
| And you always wanted one
|
| It comes a little late, but it’s complete
|
| It’s from the heart
|
| Please remember: I love you dearly
|
| Although we have to part
|
| So I won’t cling to you
|
| Because it’s driving you away
|
| No need for subterfuge
|
| I’ve all run out of insights
|
| And inspiring things to say
|
| No need to worry so about me
|
| 'Cause you know
|
| I’m landing on my feet
|
| A little late, but I’m complete
|
| I speak from the heart:
|
| Please remember, I love you dearly
|
| Although we have to part
|
| Please remember, I love you dearly
|
| Although we have to part |
