Brooks, Dunn - The Long Goodbye lyrics

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

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

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 oh oh, oh
Long goodbye
Oh, it's a long goodbye, it's a long goodbye
