Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll say goodbye to love
No one should ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again, the chance for love has passed me by
And all I know of love is how to live without it
I just can't seem to find it
[Verse 2]
So I've made my mind up, I must live my life alone
And though, it's not the easy way, I guess I've always known
I'd say goodby to love
[Verse 3]
There are no tomorrow's for this heart of mine
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
And I'll find that there is someone to believe in
And to live for, something I could live for
[Verse 4]
All the years of useless search, it finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
From this day, love is forgotten, I'll go on as best I can
[Verse 5]
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all
No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
There may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong
But for now, this is my song
[Verse 6]
And it's goodbye to love
I'll say goodbye to love
[Verse 7]
Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah
