Don’t Ever Say Goodbye
David Brown / Gene Dunford
Blow a kiss
Say I love you but remember this
Don’t ever say goodbye
One door closes another slams
Left with pockets full of unfulfilled plans
Too deep to reach with shaking hands
So don’t ever say goodbye
Why was I the one who was always busy?
Now there’s lots of time for feeling guilty
It’s not as simple as press the return key
So don’t ever say goodbye
Say so long - see you again
Au revoir - auf wiedersehen
Hasta la vista - I gotta’ go
Good day – goodnight - good to see you - cheerio
Say it your own way do your own thing
Say hello I must be going
But don’t ever say goodbye
It is the one word that sounds so final
The guillotine, the be-all-and-end-all
The thumb and finger on the burning candle
So don’t ever say goodbye
Turn and smile when you get to the border
A loose salute as you turn the corner
Leave a lasting image for the mourner
But don’t ever say goodbye
