Last Goodbye (MTV, 120 Minutes, New York, 1/15/95) Songtext
von Jeff Buckley

This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it′s over, just hear this and then I'll go
You gave me more to live for, more than you′ll ever know

Well, this is our last embrace
Must I dream and always see your face?
Why can't we overcome this wall?
Baby, maybe it's just because I didn′t know you at all


Kiss me, please kiss me
Kiss me out of desire, baby, not consolation
Oh, you know it makes me so angry ′cause I know that in time
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye

Did you say, "No, this can′t happen to me!"
Did you rush to the phone to call?
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying
"Maybe you didn't know at all"
You didn′t know him at all, oh, you didn't know
Ooh, you didn′t know

Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
Burning clues into this heart of mine
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes
And the memory offer signs that it's over
It's over
