Lyrics
There is no great big ending, no sunset in the sky There is no string ensemble, and she doesn't even cry And just as I begin to say that we should make another try She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye There is no big explosion, no tempest in the tea The world does not stop turning round, there's no big tragedy Sitting in a coffee shop with cheesecake and some apple pie She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye Good-bye, said so easily, Good-bye, said so quietly Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, just two always strangers avoid each other's eyes One still make believing, one still telling lies, she tells me that I'm not to blame But when I ask the reason why She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye Good-bye, said so easily. Good-bye, said so quietly Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye
