We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye - Frankie laine
We thought that love was over
That we were really through
I said I didn't love her
That we'd begin anew
And you can all believe me
We sure intended to
But we just couldn't say goodbye
And the chair and then the sofa
Just broke right down and cry
The curtains started waving for him to come inside
I tell you confidentially
The tears were hard to hide
And we just couldn't say goodbye
Now the clock was striking 12 o'clock
It smiled on us below
With folded hands it seemed to say
We'll miss you if you go
So I went back and kissed her
And when I looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we are both so happy
Because at last we found
We just couldn't say goodbye
Now the clock was striking 12 o'clock
It smiled on us below
With folded hands it seemed to say
We'll miss you if you go
So I went back and kissed her
And when I looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we are both so happy
Because at last we found
We just couldn't say goodbye
Are your farewell over so long
We just could not say goodbye
