lyrics

I got a few dollars but I’m short on sense
Cuz I’ve been dying to see you again
It’s good I got my friends
Talk me out of trying

Cuz you didn’t treat me so well
But I tell myself what the hell
There ain’t nobody that’s ever loved me
The way that you did

And it’s for the better I know
That you finally had to go
But could you please return my heart and soul
And some of the minor appliances

Where did I go wrong
How can I move on
When I’m not really sure why
You said goodbye
Goodbye
Why why baby, goodbye?

I’d love to see you again
I guess that shows to what extent
I ain’t even started to find my way again
without you

Newspapers all out on the lawn
Sinks full of dishes since your gone
And I just can’t seem
To give a damn

And it’s for the better I know
That you finally had to go
But could you please return my heart and soul
And some of the minor appliances

Where did I go wrong
How can I move on
When I’m not really sure why
You said goodbye

Where did I go wrong
How can I move on
Could you just tell me one more time
Why you’re saying goodbye
Goodbye
Why why baby, goodbye
