LEARN TO SAY GOODBYE
>From the TV Film "Say Goodbye, Maggie Cole" (1972)
(Music: Hugo Montenegro / Lyrics: Bradford Craig)


Dusty Springfield (Film Soundtrack) - 1972


When I close my eyes I can see your face
Though I try, I can't believe that you are gone
There's a part of you that's a part of me 
And no matter where I go, it comes along
Reminding me of all the good times
And, of course, some of the bad
But then again, some of those hard times 
Were the best we ever had

How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew
Learn to say goodbye to you
How can I learn to say goodbye
Tell me, how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you

When I needed you, you were always there
You were more than love to me, you were a friend
They say that time is all that matters
And to live it while it lasts
But I can't stop from reminiscing
Or stop living in the past

How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew
Learn to say goodbye to you
How can I learn to say goodbye
Tell me, how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you

How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew
Say goodbye to you
How can I learn to say goodbye
Tell me, how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you
