Goodbye to Love
Farewell to Heartache: Molly Hatchet's Emotion-packed Journey
Lyrics
Goodbye, to you girl, we really had some good times,
Expressing farewell to a relationship with a girl, reminiscing about the good times shared.
Then you loosened your hold on me, took away what I thought was mine,
Describing how the girl has let go and taken back what was once perceived as belonging to the speaker.
Now you've got your wings, girl, and you can fly like a dove,
Acknowledging the girl's newfound freedom and ability to move on like a dove flying away.
When I'm lying awake in bed at night, honey, it's you I'm thinkin' of
Expressing the speaker's inability to stop thinking about the girl, especially during sleepless nights.
No conversation, no alibis,
Highlighting the lack of communication and excuses in the relationship.
No explanation, just a glimpse of your far away eyes,
Describing the distant look in the girl's eyes without any explanation.
Now you've got your freedom, have fun while you can,
Acknowledging the girl's newfound freedom and encouraging her to have fun while she can.
Cause one day you're gonna to find yourself in the arms of another man
Warning that the girl will eventually find herself in the arms of another man.
Goodbye to love, goodbye to pain,
Bidding farewell to love and the pain associated with it.
Goodbye promises that get broken time and time again
Saying goodbye to promises that have been repeatedly broken.
I know there's nothing I can say to make you change your mind,
Recognizing the futility of trying to change the girl's mind.
I guess that's the price I have to pay,
Accepting the emotional price the speaker has to pay for the situation.
Seems like such a waste to leave it all behind,
Expressing regret at leaving everything behind, considering it a waste.
As I stand here in the distance and watch your cold heart slip today
Observing the girl's heart becoming cold as the speaker stands at a distance.
You just go on now and follow the sky,
Instructing the girl to move forward and follow her own path in the sky.
Cause now that you're gone from me there won't be no reason to lie
Stating that without the girl, there is no reason to lie.
Goodbye to love, goodbye to pain,
Repeating the farewell to love and pain.
Goodbye promises that get broken time and time again
Reiterating the goodbye to broken promises that occur repeatedly.
Goodbye to love, goodbye to pain,
Restating the farewell to love and pain.
Goodbye to those promises that get broken time and time and time again
Emphasizing the cyclical nature of broken promises.
Goodbye to love, goodbye to pain,
Once again bidding goodbye to love and pain.
Goodbye to those promises that get broken time and time and time and time again
Repeatedly expressing the farewell to promises that are consistently broken.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye,
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye love
Final farewell, repeating the word 'goodbye' and mentioning 'love.'
