| There is no great big ending, no sunset in the sky |
| There is no string ensemble, and she doesn’t even cry |
| And just as I begin to say that we should make another try |
| She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye |
| There is no big explosion, no tempest in the tea |
| The world does not stop turning round, there’s no big tragedy |
| Sitting in a coffee shop with cheesecake and some apple pie |
| She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye |
| Good-bye, said so easily, Good-bye, said so quietly |
| Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, just two always strangers avoid each other’s eyes |
| One still make believing, one still telling lies, she tells me that I’m not to blame |
| But when I ask the reason why |
| She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye |
| Good-bye, said so easily. Good-bye, said so quietly |
| Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye |
| She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye |
