[Verse 1]
Baby, though I'm leaving, don't you cry
I'm the one that's grieving, you know why
Love is like a wild bird you can't tie
Free to stay forever or to fly
Though my heart will always stay
Gotta make my getaway
[Refrain]
Gotta say goodbye
Gotta say goodbye
[Chorus]
Sweet tears just keep falling from your eyes
That's the only trouble with goodbyes
Sweet tears just keep falling from your eyes
That's the only trouble with goodbyes
[Outro]
Broken dreams and promises
That's the way love always is
Please, please, please don't ask me why
Please don't ask me why
[Instrumental]
