You kissed me and you said I was a gentleman to you
You said I was a person you could trust
You told me that you loved me, aw, in a way couldn't I
Girl, you sure know how to say goodbye
You kissed me in a way you never did when love was right
Girl, you sure know how to say goodbye
I stood and watched you walk away, you know honey, I didn't even cry
Girl, you sure know how to say goodbye
--- Instrumental ---
You gave me that old pep talk as you cried on my sleeve
You said that you'd come runnin' day or night
You said that I could call on you throughout my lonely life
Girl, you sure know how to say goodbye
You kissed me in a way you never did when love was right
You hypnotised the hurt right out of me
I stood and watched you walk away, ah honey, and I couldn't even cry
Girl, you sure know how to say goodbye
