If you go away, she'll hate you more
It's raining tears, on a heart that's pure
I lead her on, that's my mistake
Just what you lose, you learn too late
A pretty face and a gentle smile
Inside her eyes, I saw a child
I never thought this day would come
But pain can follow, anyone

Kiss her for me, make her happy
Don't let her down or make her cry
She used to be the one and only
Sometimes lovers, say good-bye

I've been to every bar in town, but
Nothing works this time around
She's gone too far and now I know
That's why I have to just, let her go
If you should see her on the street
Smile and say hello, just for me
She learned her lesson much too late
Won't you tell her that I, that I, just could
Not wait

And kiss her for me, make her happy
Don't let her down or make her cry
She used to be my one and only
Sometimes lovers say good-bye
Whisper, speak inside your ear, painful
Things you don't want to hear
Ain't no love on a crowded street
Where lovers laugh and strangers cheat

Kiss her for me, make her happy
Don't let her down or make her cry
She used to be my one and only, but
Sometimes lovers, say good-bye
Sometimes lovers, say good-bye
Say good-bye, oh yeah
