Oh, oh, ooh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yes
Hoo
Some goodbyes take forever
Some folks don't know how to say goodbye
♪
Well I can't remember what this was
And I can't remember what that was
But I do remember the real love
I remember when I could feel love
And I do remember when she came
Though I can't remember her real name
I do remember what it felt like
Say something just didn't seem right
That's how it goes when your love runs cold
And I know what real love is and I don't feel it no more
See, I've been through trials, I played the game,
I wrote the book called that thing pain
And if you don't believe me, hm
Then listen to the song's I used to sing
This is my swan song
Now you gone, now you gone
This is my swan song
Now you gone, now you gone, now you gone
Now I can't remember where we were
But I remember when I first saw her
I knew there was a connection more than simple affection
So I started asking you questions 'cause i didn't wanna be guessin'
You said that I was just trippin' but I knew that you started slippin'
And that's how it goes when your love runs cold
See, I know what real love is and I don't feel it no more
See I've been through trials, I played the game,
I wrote the book called that thing pain
And if you don't believe me
Then listen to the song's I sing, yeah
This is my swan song
Now you gone, now you gone
This is my swan song
Now you gone, now you gone, now you gone
I remember like it was just yesterday, the day you left
You stood far away from me at the end of the door step, yes, you did
Proceeded to make me out to be the enemy,
I ain't yo enemy
When I've always been your friend you just don't want me
Oh, and that's how it goes when your love runs cold now
And I know what real love is and I don't feel you no more
See, I been through trials, I played your game
And I wrote a book I call that thing pain
And if you don't believe me, boy
Then listen to this song I sing
Hey, this is my swan song, yeah
Now you gone, now you gone
This is my swan song
'Cause now you gone, now you gone, now you gone
You couldn't even find a way to say goodbye,
Why?
