Lyrics Jerry Lee Lewis

Jerry Lee Lewis

What's So Good About Goodbye

Well the taxicab is waiting

And you've made up your mind

Pick up that old red suitcase

And Lord I start to die

Well I wish I could say something

But there ain't no road that's right

What's so fair about farewell

What's so good about goodbye

So long somehow sounds so long

I'll never live it through

See you around ain't what I mean though

It'll kill me if I do

Well there's just no way to say it

So I guess I won't even try

What's so fair about farewell

What's so good about goodbye

So I stand here in the doorway

And I watch you walk away

There's time enough for one last word

But Lord knows what I should say

So I search my mind just once more

But there ain't no word that's right

What's so fair about farewell

What's so good about goodbye

And so long somehow sounds so long

I'll never live it through

See you around ain't what I mean though

It'll kill me if I do

Well there's just no way to say it

So I guess I won't even try

What's so fair about farewell

What's so good about goodbye
