Here we are, so close to the end now
Still holding on, we try and pretend now
Clinging to love we both know is dying, it’s dying
We’ve tried and tried to find us a way out
But darling, our dreams have now all been played out
Still we go on, hopelessly trying
But how many times can we say goodbye
And how many times can we see love die
And how many times can we give it one more try
Before we really say goodbye, mmm goodbye, goodbye
We’re so in love, but wrong for each other
Each hurt that heals brings on another
Both of us used and both of us using
Hey, hey, darling it’s time that we stopped pretending
There’s just no way to re-write our ending
We’re caught in this game and we know we’re both losing
Hey, but how many times can we say goodbye
How many times can we live this lie
And how many times can we give it one more try
Before we really say goodbye
How many times can we break up and make up
Both of our hearts refusing to wake up
Just can’t go on and on living a lie
Though I’ll always love you
How many times can we say goodbye
And how many times can we live this lie
How many times can we give it one more try
How many times before we really say goodbye
Bye-bye, goodbye, bye-bye, goodbye
