Goodbye My Love
Heartbreak Echoes: Jimmy Ross Sings Farewell to Love
Lyrics
Well I wake up in the morning
Expressing the start of the day, waking up in the morning.
Your bags I see
Observing the presence of packed bags belonging to the partner.
But you don't but you don't have to worry
Assuring the partner that there's no need to worry as they belong together.
Oh you belong to me
Affirming ownership and connection to the partner.
Babe I said when I come home
Noting the absence of food upon returning home.
There's no food on the table
Observing packed bags and a seemingly imminent departure.
And your bags are packed
Describing a situation where the partner's bags are ready but they are still present.
And you still live here baby
Highlighting the emotional difficulty of the partner still being there.
Oh baby you say your leaving
Partner declares the intention to leave.
I'm upon my knees
The speaker is pleading on their knees, begging the partner not to leave.
Begging please not to go not to go

Baby stay stay with me

Don't walk out the door

But there's one thing baby
Expressing a desire to understand something important.
There's one thing I want to know

C'mon now baby

All I can do is fall on my knees
