I better go
When it happens everyday, you know
You can't try and live on a diet
Of pain and harsh words

Love's not a trial
Ending in a walk down the aisle
You can't ever twist the hands,
I don't care what you've heard

You made it seem so simple
You made it easy to live
But how could I know that purring in my bed
Was a kitten with a whip

[Chorus:]
Goodbye love, it's way past the moment
Goodbye love, stop trying
Goodbye love, can't drive it to the dead end
Fate will never unbend, goodbye love

Now I understand
When the money runs through my hands
I'll find myself all alone at the zero hour

Making love was so easy
Wearing diamonds and gold
How could I know that perched in my bed
Was a kitten with a whip

[Chorus]
Goodbye love, it's way past the moment
Goodbye love, stop trying
Goodbye love, can't drive it to the dead end
Fate will never unbend, goodbye love

And when I turn off the lights
That's when it hits the hardest
My resolution starts slipping away
And my conviction just falls from the hip

Goodbye love [Repeat: x7]
