What Do You Mean When You Say Goodbye Songtext

von Tom T. Hall

(Tom T. Hall)

(What do you mean, what do you mean, what do you mean?)

What do you mean when you say goodbye
You're back again and I don't know why
I thought goodbye meant that we'd let it die
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

I understood all of your little lies
I tried to make something out of my life
You're back again and I'm so surprised
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

They all tell me that love is a game
I say well now what's her name
Let's call it something it makes me cry
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

I understood all of your little lies
I tried to make something out of my life
You're back again and I'm so surprised
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

Next time you'll leave then we'll both know
You can't come back here anymore
Don't come smiling I know that disguise
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

I understood all of your little lies
I tried to make something out of my life
You're back again and I'm so surprised
What do you mean when you say goodbye?

(What do you mean when you say goodbye?...)
