Kiss and Say Goodbye
Farewell Echoes: Embracing Goodbyes in Joan Osborne's Melody
Lyrics
I had to meet you here today
I needed to meet you today
There's just so many things to say
There are many things I want to express
Please don't stop me till I'm through
Please let me finish speaking
This is something I hate to do
This is something I find unpleasant but necessary
We been meeting here so long
We've been meeting here for a long time
I guess what we've done, oh was wrong
I acknowledge that what we've been doing may have been wrong
Please darlin' don't you cry
Please don't cry, my dear
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Let's part with a kiss and say goodbye
Many months have passed us by
Many months have passed since we started
I'm gonna miss you I can't lie
I will miss you, and I can't deny it
I got ties and so do you
We both have commitments and responsibilities
I just think this is the thing to do
I believe ending this relationship is the right thing to do
It's gonna hurt me I can't lie
Ending this hurts me as well
Baby I'll need, I'll need another guy
I will need someone else in my life
Understand me, won't you try, try, try, try, try
Understand my perspective and try to comprehend
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Let's part with a kiss and say goodbye
We been meeting here so long
We've been meeting here for a long time
I guess what we've done, oh was wrong
I acknowledge that what we've been doing may have been wrong
Please darlin' don't you cry
Please don't cry, my dear
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Let's part with a kiss and say goodbye
I'm gonna miss you I can't lie
I will miss you, and I can't deny it
Understand me, won't you try, try, try, try, try
Understand my perspective, and try to comprehend
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Let's part with a kiss and say goodbye
Oh
Expressing a feeling of pain or longing
I'm gonna miss you baby
I will miss you, baby
Understand me, won't you try
Understand my perspective, won't you try
Let's just kiss and say goodbye
Let's part with a kiss and say goodbye
