railroad station, midnight trains lonely airports in the rain

and somebody stands there with tears in their eyes

it's the same old scene, time after time that's the trouble with all mankind somebody's always sayin' goodbye it's the same old scene, time after time

that's the trouble with all mankind somebody's always sayin' goodbye

taxi cabs leave in the night greyhound buses with red tail lights

someone's leavin' and someone's left behind

well i don't know how things got that way

but every place you look these days somebody's always sayin' goodbye

take two people like me and you we could have made it, we just quit too soon

oh the two of us, we could have had it all if we'd only tried

but that's the way love is, it seems just when you've got a real good thing

somebody's always sayin' goodbye
