Goodbye Lovers and Friends lyrics

[Intro]

Lovely, lovely

[Verse 1]

I don't play pop music, no

You know I hate pop music

Just sing Amazing Godless Grace

I don't wear bright colours, no

You know I hate bright colours

I never liked you for the way you dressed, anyway

[Chorus]

Goodbye lovers and friends

So sad to leave you

When they lie and say, "This is not the end"

You can laugh as if we're still together

You can laugh about it all, anyway

[Verse 2]

I hope you didn't bring flowers (Oh)

Hope you didn't write a poem (Oh)

Hope you remember every fight

I know I could be noxious

Or occasionally cruel

But only to the ones I love

[Chorus]

So, goodbye lovers and friends

So sad to leave you

When they lie and say, "This is not the end"

You can laugh as if we're still together

You can laugh about it all

[Bridge]

Don't get inventory

Don't fake your memory

Don't give me virtues that I never had

Don't get sycophantal

We never were sentimental

I know that I took more than I ever gave

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

I don't need to be forgiven

But a moment from the living

Yeah, that's the only thing I ask

So don't play pop music, no

You know I hate pop music

Just sing Amazing Godless Grace

[Chorus]

Goodbye lovers and friends

It's so sad to leave you

When they lie and say, "This is not the end"

You can laugh as if we're still together

But this really is the end
