Did We Have To Come This Far (To Say Goodbye)

Did We Have to Come This Far to Say Goodbye - Carl Smith

When you were only friendly on my mind

Before your love became my way of life

You knew that it would rain on down the line

Did we have to come this far to say goodbye

Why did you keep putting off your leaving

When staying was the last thing on your mind

You could have turned around and spared my feelings

Did we have to come this far to say goodbye

What made you give my love a chance to live

Just long enough to be afraid to die

You knew I needed more than you would give

Did we have to come this far to say goodbye

Why did you keep putting off your leaving

When staying was the last thing on your mind

You could have turned around and spared my feelings

Did we have to come this far to say goodbye

Did we have to come this far to say goodbye
