"I Wonder Why You Said Goodbye" lyrics

"I Wonder Why You Said Goodbye"

Your letter came this very day
And it wiped all my dreams away
I've read it o'er a thousand times
It's left me with a worried mind

I wonder why you said goodbye
And did you mean to make me cry
I guess until the day I die
That I will still be wondering why

I'd read the thought that we are through
And that you found somebody new
I love you now I always will
I'd rather die than say farewell

I wonder why you said goodbye
And did you mean to make me cry
I guess until the day I die
That I will still be wondering why

I hope and pray before my time
That you'll come back and say you're mine
Bring back the love you took away
And mend the heart you broke today

I wonder why you said goodbye
And did you mean to make me cry
I guess until the day I die
That I will still be wondering why
