How Do I Tell Her?

How do I tell her that I'm goin' away

When I know that she'll be beggin' me to stay?

And how do I tell her that the time has come to part

When she's, she's gonna take it so hard

I don't wanna break her heart

I don't wanna see her cry, no

'Cause I promised her forever

That I'd be by her side, so

How do I tell her?

How do I tell her, tell her, goodbye?

Oh, yeah

How do I tell her that my path has gone and changed

When I know that her heart won't be able to stand the pain?

Oh, no

And how do I tell her that I'm movin' on with my life

When she's just gonna break down and die?

I don't wanna break her heart, no

I don't wanna see her cry, no

When I promised the girl forever

I'd be by her side, so

How do I tell her

Tell her, tell her goodbye?

Whoa, yeah, whoa

Listen, she's been forever faithful, honest, and true

Yes, she has

My God, this has gotta be the worst thing that I ever had to do

How, how, how, how, how, how?

How do I tell her, oh, oh

That the time has come to part

When I know that she's gonna take it so very hard?

Yes, she is

See, I don't wanna break her heart

I don't wanna see the little girl cry

When I promised her forever, oh, oh

That I'd be by her side

How do I tell her, tell her, tell her

Goodbye, bye, bye, bye? Oh, baby, bye, oh, whoa

How, how do I tell her? (How do I tell her?)

How do I tell her goodbye, baby?

Won't somebody tell me (Goodbye)

How do I tell the girl

Bye, bye, baby?

Bye, bye, baby

Bye, bye, baby

Bye, bye, baby...
