In someone else's arms
You have found consolation
His fingers smooth your skin
And fold about your breast
I see it all to clear in my imagination
Now that I'm cast aside
Now that I'm dispossessed
This time it is goodbye
It's got to be goodbye
I see your body rise
Without the least resistance
Your mouth against his mouth
So eager to combine
And as you shut your eyes
Denying my existence
I hear you cry his name
The way you once cried mine
It's got to be goodbye (it's got to be)
(It's got to be)
(It's got to be goodbye)
In someone else's bed
You have found exaltation
And though it tears my pride
What can I but forget?
What use are all my words?
What use is condemnation?
You life is yours to live
Your body is yours to give
And though I always want you
Through all my rage I still want you
And love you
It's to be goodbye
It's to be goodbye
