"How About Goodbye" lyrics

In through every now and bourbon, his vocabulary
Check the dictionary
But he couldn't find a single word that had a definition
Describing his condition

I said, "Baby, judging from your kiss
Here's a few to help you start your list."

How about "goodbye"?
How about "so long"?
How about "I am leaving you, 'cause the thrill is gone"?

There are many other words, that you can try
When it's said and done
There is only one
How about "goodbye"?
How about "goodbye"?

Used to have a voice of gold
That never failed to please me
And tender words came easy
Now he's silent and his voice is cold
His tender words are tarnished
His vocal chords are harnessed

He quickly turns his face away
And he says he doesn't know what to say

How about "goodbye"?
How about "so long"?
How about "I am leaving you, 'cause the thrill is gone"?

There are many other words, that you can try
When it's said and done
There is only one
How about "goodbye"?
How about "goodbye"?

How about "I am leaving you, 'cause the thrill is gone"?

There are many other words, that you can try
When it's said and done
There is only one
How about "goodbye"?
How about "goodbye"?
