Soft words and brief smiles
on the steps in the statue of liberty.
Her thin arms embrace me.
All her friends are going to a party tonight.

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage.
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

Will we meet here this time next year?
How many more years must I keep pretending
that I don't love you, that I don't need you
that I don't miss you everyday that I'm not with you.

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage.
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

What does she see in me
when she can see right though me?

Will we meet here this time next year?
How many more years must I keep pretending
that I don't love you, that I don't need you
that I don't miss you everyday that I'm not with you.

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage.
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage.
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways
