this has got to be the saddest day of my life

i called you here today for a bit of bad news

i won't be able to see you any more

because of my obligations

and the ties that you have

we've been meeting here every day

and since this is our last date together

i want to hold you just one more time

when you turn and walk away

don't look back

i want to remember you just like this

let's just kiss

and say goodbye

i had to meet you here today

there's just so many things to say

please don't stop me till i'm through

this is something i hate to do

we've been meeting here so long

i guess what we done was wrong

please darling don't you cry

let's just kiss and say goodbye [bracketed]

many months have passed us by

[bracketed] i'm gonna miss you i can't lie

[bracketed]

i've got ties and so do you

i just think this is the thing to do

it's gonna hurt me i can't lie

maybe you'll meet another guy

understand me won't you try try try try try try

let's just kiss and say goodbye

[bracketed] i'm gonna miss you

[bracketed] understand me won't you try

[bracketed] it's gonna hurt me i won't lie

[bracketed] take my handkerchief and wipe your eyes

[bracketed] baby you'll find you'll find another guy

[bracketed] let's kiss and say goodbye pretty baby

[bracketed] please don't you cry

[bracketed] understand me won't you try

[bracketed] let's just kiss and say goodbye
