We Just Couldn't Say Good-Bye

We Just Couldn't Say Good-Bye - The Boswell Sisters

We thought that love was over

We were really through

I said I didn't love him

We'd begin anew

And you can all believe me

We sure intended to

We couldn't say goodbye

The chair and then the sofa

They broke right down and cried

The curtains started waving

For me to come inside

I can tell you tially

The tears were hard to hide

We couldn't say goodbye

The clock was striking twelve

It smiled on us below

With folded hands

It seemed to say

"We'll miss you when you go "

I went back and kissed him

And when I looked around

The room was singing love songs

And dancing up and down

Now we're both so happy

Because at last we've found

We couldn't say goodbye

People in love are funny

They're mighty hard to explain

One minute they quarrel

Then they're back together again

Take my case for instance

We had a little fuss

Now we but gather you should sell

We thought that love was over

We were really through

I said I didn't love him

We see good anew

You can all believe me

We sure intended to

We just couldn't say goodbye

The chair and then the sofa

They broke right down and cried

They clock sol welz

Let coming slay

I tell you confidentially

Tears were hard to hide

We just couldn't say goodbye

The clock was striking twelve

It smiled on us below

With folded hands it seemed to say

"We'll miss you see you go "

I went back and kissed him

When I looked around

The room was singing love songs

Dancing up and down

Now we're both so happy

Because at last we've found

We just couldn't say goodbye

Yeah

We go

We couldn't say goodbye
