1st Verse
I'm gonna tell you somethin'
You don't wanna hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
And I, I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind
Pre Chorus
When you come home tonight (yeah, ooh)
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find

Yeah, my little good-byes
(Little good) little good-byes
2nd Verse
I'm sure you're sure I'll be back
In just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if you're wonderin'
When you're gonna hear from me
Well, take a real good look around, boy
And it won't be hard to see
Pre Chorus
When you come home tonight (yeah, ooh)
Don't you be surprised to find

Yeah, my little good-byes
Oh baby, (little good) little good-byes
Bridge
So, cry to your mom
And your sympathetic friends, and tell 'em
Tell 'em how the story ends

My little good-byes

My little good-byes

Oh, baby, my little good-byes
