The first time I said goodbye
I thought I'd lost my heaven
And so I came running back to you
And I made a vow to myself
I'd never lose you again
The first time I said goodbye

The first time you broke my heart
I never saw it coming
I was as blind as a fool in love can be
And I made a vow to myself
You'd never hurt me again
The first time you broke my heart

Hey, wait a minute, baby
I'm always walking out that door
I stand the pain for a little while
And then come running back for more
So this is it, baby
Yet another sad farewell
I can't stand to live without you, baby
But living with you is a living hell

The last time I said goodbye
You told me, go and good riddance
Knowing that I'd come back to you
But I made a vow to myself
I'll never go back again
The last time I said goodbye
