Peter Wolf - Goodybye (Is All I'll Send Her) Lyrics

Nothin' but time knows it's mine
Nothin' but days keep rollin' by
So much love there used to be
I'm fallin' behind
Jus' fallin' behind

What should I have said
What should I have done
What else could I surrender
Goodbye is all I'll send her

Just give it up, darlin'
You know I can't be there
She whispers but nothin' rhymes
Anyone who sees her
Can never please her
Lord knows I've tried so many times

What should I have said
What should I have done
What else could I surrender
Goodbye is all I'll send her

If I stay here with you, baby
I'll be crucified
Tell me what more can I do
But to hold on to my pride
Nothin' but my pride

This is my lover's prayer
I hope it reaches out to you, darling
But how can you sit there after all this time
And tell me I'm not the one

And you know how hard I tried
I tried so hard, girl, to please you
Love is what we both want
Love is what we both need
What more can I do
Time keeps rolling, time keeps rolling
