Goodbye lover, hello friend
Who'd had thought this affair could end?
But we're intelligent people
Much too grown up to pretend

Goodbye lover let's agree
We will meet just occasionally
Someday we will discover
Dreams that are broken can mend

I'd like to run away from you
Leave all my longing behind me
But what a foolish thing to do
For how would you know where to find me?

Goodbye lover, go your way
I will miss you each lonely day
And when at last you realize
A love like our love never dies
I know we'll be together in the end
Then I'll say: Hello lover
Goodbye friend

And when at last you realize
A love like our love never dies
I know we'll be together in the end
Then I'll say: Hello lover
Goodbye friend
