Lyrics
I had a real good reason for a bad goodby
now my baby's leaving and I don't wonder why
She left me with memories and I left her with a lie
and a real good reason for a bad goodby
A picture's worth a thousand words and I found out that's true
Cause noe nobodys' talking, my baby's mad and blue
and if I could errace the past I don't know what I'd do
I was trying to save someone still I don't know who
I had a real........
So if you think you're doing good keeping secrets with yourself
Lying and denying that you've found someone else
All the reasons in this world will fall down on their knees
Dry up in the sun and blow away like leaves
