Go and Say Goodbye

You ask me to read this letter
 That you wrote the night before
 And you really should know better
 'Cause she's worth a whole lot more
 Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
 Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
 You won't go and say goodbye?
 Then you said the fault was yours
 And you really were to blame
 'Twas as if to close the doors
 And to hide away in shame
 Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
 Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
 You won't go and say goodbye?
 Yes, and why, tell me why?
 Can't you see that it's not right?
 It's a lie, it's a lie
 Don't hide your sorrow in the night
 Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
 Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
 You won't go and say goodbye?
 ♪
 And I know the pain is double
 But for her it's even worse
 You must face her with the trouble
 'Though it's hurting like a curse
 Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
 Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
 You won't go and say goodbye?
 Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
 Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
 You won't go and say
 Gonna go and say, gonna go and say goodbye
