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, I didn't shove it to you
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind (ooh)
When you come home tonight (yeah)
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
(My little goodbyes) empty hangers by the closet door
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor (my little goodbyes)
Unpaid bills by the kitchen floor
I took the Beatles, left Elton John (yeah)
Little goodbyes
Little good, little goodbyes
I'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
Go 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 tonight (yeah)
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
(My little goodbyes) took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the lid, but I took the cat (my little goodbyes)
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR (yeah)
Little goodbyes (oh, baby)
Little good, little goodbyes
So cry to your mom and your
Sympathetic friends and tell 'em
Tell 'em how the story ends
My little goodbyes
Took the hourglass, left the sand
Now you got time on your hands (my little goodbyes)
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddha man (yeah, my little goodbyes)
Changed my voice on the machine
Oh, there'll be little goodbyes in their dreams (oh, baby)
(Little good, little goodbyes) took the pictures and took the frame
I got the umbrella, here comes the rain (ooh)
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Little goodbyes (hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Little goodbyes (hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Little goodbyes
