Skip all the duress and bitterness I prefer to part with you as friends How would you suggest a better way, A way to say goodbye? My heart is made of flint, it's made of fire Yours is like Pyrex, resisting mine I am so perplexed, I need a way A way to say goodbye. spoken [I know that an old love like ours Was never meant to have more than the smallest chance Still, won't you please say something now That will help me understand?] Skip all the duress I'd rather find Something to protect me from your kind Behind a Kleenex I'll shield my eyes A way to say goodbye A way to say goodbye Skip all the duress I'd rather find Something to protect me from your kind Behind a kleenex I'll shield my eyes A way to say goodbye A way to say goodbye A way to say goodbye...
