We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye

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
