Bye & Bye Songtext
von Tommy Womack

You gotta pick this Harris Teeter
Is there no place else you could move
I still gotta see you
Gotta go through the "Hello, how are you" with no groove
Your body still makes me a young man
Your brain′s still a bomb you can throw
I had me a nice hard decision to make
All those years ago

By and by
By and by
We don't ask why
We just say "I′m sorry, it happened, goodbye"


It's a pity, I miss our conversations
You could talk a man down to the bone
Dancin' alone
You′d start every show in a skirt you barely have on
I guess it was no hanging matter
It′s no capital crime
I got what I wanted and what I deserved
And now all we got left is this rhyme

By and by
By and by
We don't ask why
We just say "I′m sorry, it happened, goodbye"

Oh great, we get to check out next to each other, too
With the children in tow
Feelin' that lovely decision I made
All those years ago
I′da made you a miserable husband
You'da been a high-maintenance wife
Please scan your next item
Please shove it in the bag
And get on with the rest of your life

By and by
By and by
We don′t ask why
We just say "I'm sorry, it happened, goodbye"

We don't ask why
We just say "I′m sorry, it happened, goodbye"
