The Long Goodbye Lyrics By Brooks Dunn

    i know they say if you love somebody you should set them free
    but it sure is hard to do it sure is hard to do
    i know they say if you don’t come back again then it’s meant to be so they say
    those words don’t pull me through ’cause i’m still in love with you

    pre
    i spend each day here waitin’ for a miracle
    but it’s just you and me goin’ through the mill climbin’ up a hill

    this is the long goodbye
    somebody tell me why
    two lovers in love can’t make it
    just what kind of love keeps breakin’ a heart
    no matter how hard i try
    i always make you cry
    come on baby it’s over let’s face it
    all that’s happenin’ here is a long goodbye

    sometimes i ask my heart did we really give our love a chance just one more chance
    but i know without a doubt we turned it inside out
    and if we walked away would it make more sense
    but it tears me up inside just to think we could still try

    pre
    how long must we keep runnin’ on a carousel
    goin’ ’round and ’round and never gettin’ anywhere on a wing and prayer

    this is the long goodbye
    somebody tell me why
    two lovers in love can’t make it
    just what kind of love keeps breakin’ a heart
    no matter how hard i try
    i always make you cry
    come on baby it’s over let’s face it
    all that’s happenin’ here is a long goodbye

    long goodbye
    ohoh oh
    long goodbye
    oh it’s a long goodbye it’s a long goodbye
