Little Good-Byes Lyrics

I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
And I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind
When you come home tonite
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find

My little good-byes
Empty hangers by the closet floor
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
My little good-byes
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel
Little good-byes, little good-byes

I'm sure, you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if you're wondering
When you're gonna hear from me
Well, take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to see
When you come home tonite and turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find

My little good-byes
Took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter, but I took the cat
My little good-byes
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
Little good-byes, oh baby, little good-byes

So cry to your mama
And your sympathetic friends and tell 'em
And tell 'em how the story ends

My little good-byes
Took the hourglass left the sand
Now you got time on your hands
My little good-byes
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddah man

My little good-byes
Change my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little good-byes with every ring
Left the pictures and took the frames
I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain
Yeah yeah yeah
Rain, yeah yeah yeah
Little good-byes
Hey, hey - yeah yeah yeah
Hey, hey - yeah yeah yeah
Little good-byes
