I Love You Goodbye - Thomas Dolby
I would never normally go bowling
On a friday morning in new orleans
But I like to come here to remember
The kind of places you took me
Like the time we stole a datsun
And drove all night to the everglades
Until we crashed it in a big electric storm
And stood there listening to the bayou rain
The County sheriff had a hair lip
Louisiana's pride and joy
He said politley as he cuffed me
I never busted an english boy
But I will accept a contribution
To the opelousas' charity ball
But you better drive this dirty datsun
Into the gulf of Mexico
Under a cajun moon I lay me open
There is a spirit here that won't be broken
Some words are sad to sing
Some leave me tongue tied
But the hardest thing to tell you
But the hardest words I know
Are I love you goodbye
I love you good goodbye
Typhoon pierre delayed my plane till morning
Jusqu'au matin
Let the bontemps rouler from your accordion
L'accordien
Under a cajun moon I lay me open
Y a un esprit partout
There is a spirit here that won't be broken
Simple words are sad to sing
Some leave you tongue tied
But the hardest thing to tell you
The hardest words I know
Is I love you goodbye
Are I love you goodbye
Je t'aime au revoir
I love you goodbye
I love you I love you I love you I
Love you goodbye
