Long Goodbye

I had never known anyone like you before
I never thought someone like you would care
For someone like me that was neither here nor there
I wanted you to save me from myself

Like a fool I believed you'd stay with me forever
But forever was just too long

It's been a long goodbye
I said to you
And when I see you again
I won't be true
To you

I really want you near me I want you here
Call you into my room
Can't stop thinking about the way we were
Can't turn off this pain

I told you everything would be alright but you said:
"Don't try to save us now."

It's been a long goodbye
I said to you
And when I see you again
I won't be true
To you

Lord I've been running around
From one lover
One lover to another
Looking for you

It's been a long goodbye
I said to you
And if I see you again
I won't be true
To you
