Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye

We love each other so deeply

That I ask you this, sweetheart,

Why should we quarrel ever,

Why can't we be enough clever,

Never to part.

Ev'ry time we say goodbye

I die a little,

Ev'ry time we say goodbye

I wonder why a little,

Why the gods above me

Who must be in the know

Think so little of me

They 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 goodbye.

Ev'ry time we say goodbye.
