Every time we say goodbye

We love each other so deeply

that I ask you this, sweet heart,

why should we quarrel ever,

why can't we be enough clever,

never to part.

Ev'ry time we say good bye I die a little,

ev'ry time we say good bye I wonder why a little,

why the gods above me

who must be in the know

think so little of met hey allow you to go.

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it,

I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it,

there's no love song finer,

but how strange the change from major to minor...

ev'ry time we say good bye.

Ev'ry time we say good bye I die a little,

ev'ry time we say good bye I wonder why a little,

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it,

I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it,

there's no love song finer,

but how strange the changefrom major to minor...

ev'ry time we say good bye.

Ev'ry single time we say good bye.
