We were
Walkin' hand in hand
Beneath the pale moonlight
You whispered
Sweet forever
Said the stars
Were shining right
But now
The nights are colder
The sky don't look the same
You left me cryin'
Callin' out your name
Why did you say goodbye?
(Why oh why?)
Was it just a lullaby?
(Just a lie?)
You kissed me once
Then turned around
Now my world is
Tumblin' down
Oh baby, why
Did you say goodbye?
The jukebox
Plays our favorite song
It cuts me like a knife
I see your face in every crowd
Like you're still in my life
But shadows
Fall where you once stood
And silence fills the air
I reach for you
But you're not there
You said
Our love was meant to be
(Meant to be)
A fairytale for you and me
(You and me)
Now I'm just a lonely melody
With no harmony
Why did you say goodbye?
(Tell me why?)
Was it all a sweet disguise?
(Just a lie?)
You held me close
Then let me go
Left me lost in the afterglow
Oh darling
Why
Did you say goodbye?
(Doo-wah, doo-wah..)
Why
Oh why
(Doo-wah, doo-wah..)
Did you say goodbye
(Shoo-be-doo goodbye)
Shoo-be-doo
Goodbye
