We choose it, win or lose it,
love is never quite the same.
I love you, now I've lost you,
don't feel bad, you are not to blame.
So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry.
All the tears in the world won't change your mind.
There's some one new,
and she's waiting for you.
Soon your heart will be leaving me behind.
Linger a while then I'll go with a smile,
like a friend who just happens to call.
For the last time pretend you are mine,
my darling, kiss me goodbye.

I know now, I must go now,
though my heart wants me to stay.
That girl is your tomorrow.
I belong to yesterday.
So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry.
All the tears in the world won't change your mind.
There's some one new,
and she's waiting for you.
Soon your heart will be leaving me behind.
Linger a while then I'll go with a smile,
like a friend who just happens to call.
For the last time pretend you are mine,
my darling, kiss me goodbye.
