The Way You Say Good-bye

Well I hate the way you call my name, baby



I hate that look on your face



And I hate the cold touch of your kiss, baby



I hate the chill in your embrace



Oh, but I hate the way that you pull from me



When I want you by my side



Yeah, baby



I hate the way that you say ÔÇŁGoodbye.?







I hate my eyes ÔÇ˙cause they see, baby



That you'll be goin' soon



And I hate my mind ÔÇ˙cause it knows, baby



There ain't nothin' I can do



But I hate my arms that long to hold you



And I hate my heart that wants to cry



Yeah baby, I hate the way that you say ÔÇŁGoodbye.?







I hate the way you talk, and you talk and talk



ÔÇ˙Til I hate every word that you say



I hate the lies I believe when you swear you won't leave



Then you turn around and you walk away



Well I hate the night I met you, baby



And your lips first touched mine



Yeah. baby



Well I hate the way that you say ÔÇŁGoodbye.?







Well I hate the way I wait



Honey, and I wait and wait



For you to make up your mind



And I hate the way it seems I'm always down on my knees



Begging, ÔÇŁBaby come back one more time.?



Well I hate everything I love about you



And I'm gonna hate it all my life



Yeah baby I hate the way that you say ÔÇŁGoodbye.?







I hate the way that you say ÔÇŁGoodbye.?
