"Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye" lyrics

"Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye"
(originally by Bettye Swann)

Kiss me each morning for a million years
Hold me each evening by your side
Tell me you love me for a million years
Then if it don't work out
Then if it don't work out
Then you can tell me goodbye

Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss
Soften my dreams with your sigh
After you've loved me for a million years
Then if it don't work out
Then if it don't work out
Then you can tell me goodbye

If you must go baby I won't grieve
If you just wait a lifetime before you leave
If you must go I won't say no
Just so we can say that we tried
Tell me you love me for a million years
Then if it don't work out
Then if it don't work out
Then you can tell me goodbye
