Kiss and Say Goodbye
Farewell Melody: Embracing the Bittersweet Goodbye in 'Kiss and Say Goodbye'
Lyrics
This has got to be the saddest day of my life
This is the saddest day of the speaker's life.
I called you here today for a bit of bad news
The speaker has gathered the listener for some unfortunate news.
I won't be able to see you any more
The speaker cannot continue seeing the listener due to obligations.
Because of my obligations
The obligations are preventing the speaker from being with the listener.
And the ties that you have
Reference to emotional ties between the speaker and the listener.
We've been meeting here every day
They have been meeting regularly, emphasizing the significance of their relationship.
And since this is our last date together
Acknowledging that this is their final meeting.
I want to hold you just one more time
The speaker desires to hold the listener one last time.
When you turn and walk away
As the listener leaves, the speaker asks them not to look back.
Don't look back I want to remember you just like this
The speaker wants to remember the listener in a positive light.
Let's just kiss
Suggesting a final kiss.
And say goodbye
Expressing the need to part ways with a goodbye.
I had to meet you here today
The speaker had to meet the listener to convey important things.
There's just so many things to say
There are many things the speaker needs to express.
Please don't stop me till I'm through
Requesting the listener not to interrupt until the speaker is done talking.
This is something I hate to do
Expressing discomfort in doing something unpleasant.
We've been meeting here so long
They have been meeting for a prolonged period, indicating a deep connection.
I guess what we done was wrong
Acknowledging that their actions may have been morally wrong.
Please, darling, don't you cry
Pleading with the listener not to cry.
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Reiterating the suggestion of parting with a kiss and goodbye.
Many months have passed us by
Time has passed, and the speaker acknowledges missing the listener.
I'm gonna miss you I can't lie
The speaker admits to feeling the loss.
I've got ties and so do you
Both the speaker and the listener have other commitments.
I just think this is the thing to do
The speaker believes parting is the right decision.
It's gonna hurt me I can't lie
Admitting that the separation is painful for the speaker.
Maybe you'll meet another guy
Suggesting that the listener may find someone new.
Understand me won't you try, try, try
Requesting understanding from the listener.
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Reiterating the proposal to part with a kiss and goodbye.
