We thought that love was over and we were really through
|
I said I didn't love him that we begin a new
|
And you can all believe we sure intended too
|
But we just couldn't say goodbye
|
|
The chair and then the sofa they broke right down and cried
|
The curtains started waving for me to come inside
|
I tell you confidentially the tears were hard to hide
|
And we just couldn't say goodbye
|
|
The clock was striking 12 'o clock
|
It smiled on us below
|
We folded hands it seemed to say
|
We're gonna miss you if you go
|
|
So I went back and kissed him
|
And when we looked around
|
The room was singing love songs
|
And dancing up and down
|
And now we're both so happy
|
Because at last we found
|
That we just couldn't say goodbye
|
|
People in love are funny
|
Mighty hard to explain
|
One minute they quarrel
|
Then they're back together again
|
Take my case for instance
|
We had a little fuss
|
Now listen ladies and gentlemen
|
Here's what happened to us
|
|
The clock was striking 12 'o clock
|
It smiled on us below
|
We folded hands it seemed to say
|
We're gonna miss you if you go
|
|
So I went back and kissed him
|
And when we looked around
|
The room was singing love songs
|
And dancing up and down
|
And now we're both so happy
|
Because at last we found
|
That we just couldn't say goodbye
|
