I Love You Goodbye |
I would never normally go bowling |
On a Friday morning in New Orleans |
But I like to come here to remember |
The kind of places you took me |
Like the time we stole a Datsun |
And drove all night to the Everglades |
Until we crashed it in a big electric storm |
And stood there listening to the bayou rain |
The county sheriff had a harelip |
Louisiana’s pride and joy |
He said politely as he cuffed me |
«I never busted an English boy |
But I will accept a contribution |
To the Opelousas' Charity Ball |
But you better drive this dirty Datsun |
Into the Gulf of Mexico» |
Under a Cajun moon I lay me open |
There is a spirit here that won’t be broken |
Some words are sad to sing |
Some leave me tongue-tied |
(But the hardest thing to tell you) |
But the hardest words I know |
Are I love you goodbye |
I love you goodbye |
Typhoon Pierre delayed my plane till morning (Jusqu'au matin) |
Let the bontemps rouler from your accordion (L'accordien) |
Under a cajun moon I lay me open (Y'a un esprit partout) |
There is a spirit here that won’t be broken |
(Simple words are sad to sing) |
Some words are sad to sing |
(They leave me tongue-tied) |
Some leave you tongue-tied |
(But the hardest thing to tell you my friend) |
The hardest words I know |
(Is I love you goodbye) |
I love you goodbye |
(Je t’aime, au revoir) |
I love you goodbye |
(Je t’aime, toujours) |
I love you, goodbye |
