We thought that love was over,
That we were really through.,
I said I didnâ??t love her,
That weâ??d begin anew,
And you can all believe me,
We sure intended to,
But we just couldnâ??t say goodbye.
The chairs and then the sofa,
They broke right down and cried,
The curtains started wavinâ??
For me to come inside,
I tell you confidentially,
The tears were hard to hide,
And we just couldnâ??t say goodbye.
The clock was striking twelve oâ??clock.
It Smiled on us below.
With folded hands it seemed to say,
Weâ??ll miss you if you go.
So I went back and kissed her
And when I looked around,
The room was singinâ?? love songs
And dancinâ?? up and down.
And now weâ??re both so happy,
Because at last weâ??ve found,
That we just couldnâ??t say goodbye.
