SAME OLD SPIEL

When I kissed you, goodbye.

Down came came the curtain on the day.

Rain began to fall around.

Our suburban domain.

I know how you feel. It's the same old spiel remember what I say.

Bye-bye baby, still my lady.

Please don't cry, don't say goodbye.

Fight my way through the airport crowd, I turned for a final wave.

And through the door you disappear, trying desperately to be brave

I know how you feel, it's the same old spiel, we know how to behave.

Bye-bye baby, still my lady, please don't cry.

Don't say goodbye.

Chorus

You'll be alone now for some short time, your love is far away.

You'll be alone now for some short while.

But please don't ever say.

Please don't ever say, goodbye.

Solo

Late at night in your hotel room, don't lie awake in bed.

And wonder how I'm missing you, go back to your dreams instead.

I know how you feel, it's the same old spiel.

What I said.

Bye-bye baby, still my lady.

Cut cry, don't say goodbye.

Chorus.

Be alone now for some short time, your love is far away,

You'll be alone now for some short while, but please don't ever say.

Oh, you'll be alone now for some short time, your love is far away.

So alone now, the sun won't shine.

But you know, I'll never say.

Know I'll never say, goodbye
