Goodbye Love Songtext
von Jonathan Larson

It′s true you sold your guitar
And bought a car?
It's true I′m leaving now for Santa Fe
It's true you're with this yuppy scum?
You said you′d never speak to him again
Not now

Who said that you have any say in who she says things to at all?
Yeah!
Who said that you should stick your nose in other people′s-
Who said I was talking to you?
We used to have this fight each night

Calm down!
She never admit I existed
Everyone, please!
He was the same way. He was always
Run away, hit the road, don't commit, you′re full of it


Mimi!
She's in denial
He′s in denial
Guys!
Didn't give an inch when I gave a mile
I gave a mile
Gave a mile to who?
C′mon guys, chill

I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had
Someone to live for
Unafraid to say "I love you"
All your words are nice Mimi
But love's not a three way street
You′ll never share real love until you love yourself
I should know

You all said you′d be cool today
So please for my sake
I can't believe she′s gone
And I can't believe you′re going
I can't believe this family will die
Angel helped us believe in love
I can′t believe you disagree

I can't believe this is goodbye


I missed you so much
I missed you too
Ow!
Calm down, Maureen!
Calm down, Maureen?
Guys...
Thomas B. Collins?
Coming

I hear, there are great restaurants out West
Some of the best, how could she?
How could you let her go?
You just don't know
How could we lose Angel?
Maybe you′ll see why
When you stop escaping your pain
At least now if you try
Angel′s death won't be in vain
His death is in vain

Are you insane? There′s so much to care about
There's me, there′s Mimi
Mimi's got her baggage too
Yeah, so do you
Who are you to tell me what I know
What to do?
A friend

But who Mark are you?
"Mark has got his work," they say
"Mark lives for his work and
Mark′s in love with his work."
Important work like Buzzline, you keep hiding in your work!
Hiding from what?

From facing your failure
Facing your loneliness
Facing the fact you live a lie
Yes, you live a lie, tell you why
You're always preaching not to be numb
When that's how you thrive
You say you know how we all feel
When you really detach from feeling alive

Perhaps it′s because I′m the one of us to survive
Poor baby
Mimi still loves Roger
Is Roger really jealous
Or afraid that Mimi's weak?
Mimi did look pale
Mimi′s gotten thin
Mimi's running out of time
Roger′s running out the door

No more, oh no
I've gotta go
Hey... I′ll call
I hate the fall

You heard?
Very word
You don't want baggage
Without lifetime guarantees
You don't want to watch me die
I just came to say goodbye love
Goodbye love, came to say goodbye love
Goodbye
Just came to say
Goodbye love (Glory)
Goodbye love (one blaze of glory)
Goodbye love, goodbye (I have to find)
Please don′t touch me, understand
I′m scared I need to go away

I know a place, a clinic
A rehab?
I could never afford
I'll pay

Goodbye love, goodbye love
Came to say goodbye love, goodbye
Just came to say goodbye love
Goodbye love, goodbye love
Goodbye love, hello, disease
