| She cried and walked away just yesterday
|
| And like a fool, I let her go
|
| We had a silly fight the night before
|
| I never said «I love you so»
|
| I wept all day and then I got the call
|
| «Would you please come to see your wife»
|
| «Something has happened and it’s very grave»
|
| «We cannot save the lady’s life»
|
| No, I never said goodbye and I never really told her
|
| Just how much she meant to me
|
| No, I never said goodbye, now it’s too late
|
| And she’s just a memory
|
| How can I go on
|
| Now that girl is gone
|
| I will know, until I die
|
| I never said goodbye
|
| Her perfume lingers all around me now
|
| A pair of shoes lie on the floor
|
| The bed unmade, where just last night, she laid
|
| I cannot say I closed the door
|
| A shopping list of things she’ll never buy
|
| An apron lyin' on the chair
|
| Is that her laugh I hear out in the hall
|
| I turn and call, but she’s not there
|
| No, I never said goodbye
|
| And I never really told her just how much she meant to me
|
| No, I never said goodbye
|
| Now it’s too late and she’s just a memory
|
| How can I go on
|
| Now that girl is gone
|
| I will know, until I die
|
| I never said goodbye |
