The Magnetic Fields - How to Say Goodbye lyrics

rate me

The only thing that I could ever feel

I can't believe it wasn't real

The only thing that I could ever feel

I can't believe it wasn't real

You can't open your mouth

without telling a lie

but baby, you know how to say goodbye

The thing I spent my whole life

waiting for

has just walked out and locked the door

The thing I spent my whole life

waiting for

has just walked out and locked the door

You can't feel a thing

and you won't even try

but baby, you know how to say goodbye

I'm overjoyed to hear about your wedding

I'm writing you to wish you

every blessing

I'm overjoyed to hear about your wedding

I'm writing you to wish you

every blessing

and I'm so happy I could cry

Oh baby you know how to say goodbye
