Goodbye Girl Songtext

von The Shins

I met her in a poolroom
Her name I didn't catch
She looks like something special
The kind who'd understand

The room was almost spinning
She pulled another smile
She had the grace like pleasure
She had a certain style

Sunlight on the lino
Woke me with a shake
I looked around to find her but she'd gone

Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

She took me to her hotel
The room on the second floor
A kettle and two coffees
The number on the door

She said I hardly know you
Agreed we kissed goodnight
I knew that in the morning
Somehow I'd wake to find

Sunlight on the lino
Waken me with a shake
I looked around to find her but she'd gone

Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

I lost my silver razor
My clubroom locker keys
The money in the waistcoat
It doesn't bother me

My wife has moved to Jersey
So mum is not the word
If you ever see her
Say hello goodbye girl

Sunlight on the lino
Woke me with a shake
I looked around to find her but she'd gone

Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl

Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
Goodbye girl
