All your life you've waited for love to come and stay
 
 And now that I have found you, you must not slip away
 
 I know it's hard believin' the words you've heard before
 
 But darlin' you must trust them just once more... 'cause baby
 
 Goodbye doesn't mean forever
 
 Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
 
 we'll never be together again
 
 If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't be long away
 
 'Cause the things you do my Goodbye Girl
 
 Will bring me back toyou.
 
  
  I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt again
 
 You fight the love you feel for me instead of givin' in
 
 But I can wait forever, a-helpin' you to see
 
 That I was meant for you and you for me
 
 ...so remember
  
 
 Goodbye doesn't mean forever
 
 Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
 
 we'll never be together again
 
 Though we may be so far apart you still will have my heart
 
 So forget your past my Goodbye Girl
 
 'Cause now you're home at last.
