Swan Blues Songtext
von Robert Moore

Goodbye
You know I hate to leave you, baby
But I′m leaving anyway
So long
You knew I'd have to leave you, baby
When you treated me this way
Don′t cry

And if it's written for us, baby
Maybe some old rainy day
I'm gone
Perhaps you′ll understand the reasons
Why you′re driving me away
Farewell
Now maybe we can be together
In the same old crazy way
Take care

So long


Goodbye, my darling
I knew I was wrong when I thought that you could return
The same love that I have offered you, dear
But you still didn't care enough to ever try to love me
Why didn′t you love me?
Why didn't you ever love me?
Maybe you′ll understand the reasons why you're letting me go
When, oh, I loved you so

Gave you money
Comfort too
Loved you only
Only you, dear
But you didn′t seem to care a thing about me
All you wanted was to have your fun without me
Oh, my darling, how could you hurt me so?
Baby, when all I did was love you
Oh, what a terrible, terrible feeling
Now, baby, I'm going away

Dry your eyes and don't you cry
Because your tears won′t make me stay
I′m really quitting, it's written, I′m splitting
Gonna start all over again
And maybe then if it's written
And the Lord above is willing

Maybe then you′ll understand the reasons
And maybe we can be together then
Never to part again


I want to love you, put no one above you
Save all your loving 'til I come back
Perhaps someday I really will come back
But until then

Baby, it′s over
It's through
True, our love affair is all over

My little baby
Baby, it's all over with
Because you said you didn′t want me
Don′t you cry because it's all over
Dry your eyes, baby, look to the future
If it′s all over, yes, it's over

I′m telling you, it's all over with
All over with, all over with
All over with, baby, don′t you cry
Can't you see that I loved you
And you never loved me?

Goodbye
You know I hate to leave you, baby
But I'm leaving anyway
So long
You knew I′d have to leave you, baby
When you treated me this way
Don′t cry

And if it's written for us, baby
Maybe some old rainy day
I′m gone

Perhaps you'll understand the reasons
Why you′re driving me away
Farewell

And maybe we can be together
And we can be together in that same old way
