This song was written sometime in the late 1970’s. It’s the classic lover’s remorse theme (why, oh why did I ever break up with her?)
See her walking down the street
She’s beautiful, she’s lovely like a dream
I feel those old feelings coming back
Feel tears coming to my eyes
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
I see her shopping in the store
Feel my heart drop to the floor
My head gets dizzy and my body feels weak
I want to run I want to hide
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
Thought I did what was right
After, I said to her goodbye
Now I’m dealing with all this hurt
Somedays I feel I wanna die
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
She’s beautiful, she’s lovely like a dream
I feel those old feelings coming back
Feel tears coming to my eyes
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
I see her shopping in the store
Feel my heart drop to the floor
My head gets dizzy and my body feels weak
I want to run I want to hide
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
Thought I did what was right
After, I said to her goodbye
Now I’m dealing with all this hurt
Somedays I feel I wanna die
Don’t know why it has to be this way
After goodbye After goodbye
After goodbye
