The Love Goodbye

Once a girl in mummy's world
Laughing, rhyming, singing songs
In her newly learned tongue

Now a girl in this world
Married to a stranger's name
Writing to him all the same

And, oh, but
Where can she go if she's going alone?
Where can she go if she's going alone?
Where can she go to avoid the love goodbye?

All the same
Letters answer letters in a round about way
Sweet, darling, they commence
But she no longer feels that way

Oh, there's not a soul in the streets below
She's sitting by the window, clinging to the phone
Dialing endless numbers, no reply
Love goodbye

Where can she go if she's going alone?
Where can she go if she's going?
Where can she go if she's going alone?

She's going alone
She's going alone
