Charlie Landsborough - Funny Way To Say Goodbye Lyrics

She started reminiscing about the good times that we shared

She painted pretty pictures

While I hung on every word

Then she started smiling

When I kind of hoped that she would cry



I remember thinking that

At the time it was a funny way to say goodbye

She cleaned the house from head to toe

And cooked my favorite meal

She stabbed me with a kiss and said

In time my wounds would heal

She found herself another pair of wings on which to fly



Through my tears she told me

It was a funny way to say goodbye

I seen it in the movies

I've read it in the books

But I was unprepared

She spoke about the weather

Her little pains of life

And wrapped up her goodbye in every word



I sat there in a timeless trance

With all my senses blurred

She brought a little wine and asked

Which color I preferred

Sorry for its sweetness but it was labeled medium dry

My voice shook as I told her

It was a funny way to say goodbye



I seen it in the movies

I've read it in the books

But I was unprepared

She spoke about the weather

Her little pains of life

And wrapped up her goodbye in every word

She said she left the money for

The milkman in the drawer

Remember that we owed a pint to the widower next door

From the door she muttered it was chilly for July

I couldn't speak at all it was a funny way to say goodbye

I couldn't speak at all it was a funny way to say goodbye
