Don’t Tell Me Goodbye
(c) 1995 by Jim Stringer

When it's over, let it end;
If it's weak, just let it bend;
When there's nothing left to say, 
just tell me a lie.

When it hurts, let it ache
When it cracks, let it break
When you're tired, call it a day
But don't tell me goodbye

Maybe worse things could happen
But I can't call them to mind
If it's lost we can find it
Or we can die tryin'

When it's old, let it die
But if it's sleepin', let it lie
Let it dream and wake someday
Don't tell me goodbye

SOLOS:
Bridge:

When it's old, let it die
But if it's sleepin', let it lie
Perhaps to dream and wake someday
So don't tell me goodbye

If it stumbles, let it fall
Take the pieces, take it all
Save it for a brighter day
But don't tell me goodbye.
