Soft words and brief smiles
on the steps in the statue of liberty
Her thin arms embrace me
All her friends are going to a party tonight

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

Will we meet here this time next year?
How many more years must I keep pretending
that I don't love you, that I don't need you
that I don't miss you everyday that I'm not with you

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

What does she see in me
when she can see right though me?

Will we meet here this time next year?
How many more years must I keep pretending
that I don't love you, that I don't need you
that I don't miss you everyday that I'm not with you

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways

Goodbye is all that we ever say
in the dim light behind the stage
We say goodbye and we go our own
lonely ways
