(Ooooo, Ooooo) I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear You never listen when I talk Maybe you'll listen when I walk So I made my mind up and made a sandwich And I didn't shed a tear I gave you one last minute of my time In this mess I left behind When you come home tonight And turn on the light Don't you be surprised to find
My little goodbyes Empty hangers by the closet door Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor My little goodbyes Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel Little goodbyes, little goodbyes
I'm sure, you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two You'll tape a Hallmark to my door They always said it better than you And if you're wondering When you're gonna hear from me Well, take a real good look around boy And it won't be hard to see When you come home tonight and turn on the light Don't you be surprised to find
My little goodbyes Took your favorite Dodger's hat Left the litter, but I took the cat My little goodbyes Loaded up the TV in the back of my car Have fun watching the VCR Little goodbyes, oh baby, little goodbyes
So, cry to your mama And your sympathetic friends and tell 'em And tell them how the story ends
My little goodbyes Took the hourglass, left the sand Now you got time on your hands My little goodbyes Took the statue from Japan Funny little Buddha man
My little goodbyes Change my voice on the machine Or there'll be little goodbyes with every ring My little goodbyes Left the pictures and took the frame I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain Yeah, yeah, yeah Little goodbyes Rain - yeah, yeah, yeah Little goodbyes Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah Little goodbyes
