"The Long Goodbye" lyrics

I found your letter under the stairs
I left it in that place you would go
When you were lost
You always know it's there
This has been the long goodbye
And there's nothing I can do
To erase my faith in you
All that pain I put you through
You were there
You were there

We used to lie there under the stars
We used to make believe they were ours
This was the love we thought could never die
This could be the long goodbye
And there's nothing I can say
To erase that final day
And we found out on the way
You were there
You were there

This has been the long goodbye
And there's nothing I can say
To erase that final day
And we found out on the way
You were there
You were there
