Let’s Not Take The Good
(Out Of Goodbye)

The day my baby left me I went happily to work
I was singing Classic Rock songs in the car
when most men would go berserk
I’m not one to worry ‘bout what we could not rise above
And I’ll always be crazy ‘bout the girl
the girl I used to love so

Chorus

Let’s not take the good out of goodbye
let’s stay the best of friends and say
we gave love one heck of a try
A temporary true love
a romance that did not fly
oh let’s not take the good out of goodbye

Bought my love a suitcase and I helped her pack her things
and I’m laughing now in the lunch room at what
joy this sorrow brings
I know I’m gonna miss her her smile her scent her touch
just as soon as I get done not missing her very much but

Chorus

Bridge

And the memory of us making love in the moonlight
I will cherish and remember year after year
oh wait that was me and my high school sweetheart
sorry my dear still

Chorus

Let’s not take the good
let’s not take the good
let’s not take the good out of goodbye
