Mmm hmm, if there's someone else in this world you love more than me
I won't be selfish, boy; I'll just set you free
& when you're leaving, I won't cry & I won't sigh
I'll say the words goodbye & throw you a kiss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss, mmm hmm
Remember, it doesn't take much to make a girl cry
So don't let it you bother you, baby, when the tears start to fill my eyes
Now don't let my cryin' change your mind
Just tell me the words goodbye & throw me a kiss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss, mmm hmm
I know the grass looks greener on the other side
But listen: you won't miss your water until your well runs dry
So listen now
When her love for you grows old, yeah
& when you find yourself left in the cold, yeah
You've got to be strong when things go wrong
Just tell her the words goodbye & throw her a kiss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss, mmm hmm
Somethin' that you won't miss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss
...& fade
I won't be selfish, boy; I'll just set you free
& when you're leaving, I won't cry & I won't sigh
I'll say the words goodbye & throw you a kiss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss, mmm hmm
Remember, it doesn't take much to make a girl cry
So don't let it you bother you, baby, when the tears start to fill my eyes
Now don't let my cryin' change your mind
Just tell me the words goodbye & throw me a kiss
Yeah baby just a farewell kiss, mmm hmm
I know the grass looks greener on the other side
But listen: you won't miss your water until your well runs dry
So listen now
When her love for you grows old, yeah

Yeah baby just a farewell kiss
