Goodnight, my lover
And it hurts so much to see you
When you learn, you will turn
And there are many things I've learned
I'm thinking of her
Tonight I know, you're letting go
Like a note, black and white
Now, the fear, it stands between you
Sing a song for me, my love
But I must never walk you home
When you turn, you will look
When you turn, you will look
And I must never walk you home
But I must never let you know
And tonight, I'll be the one that had to let you go
It hurts so much to see you
To find a resting place 'neath the shadow
But I must never let you know
When you turn, you will look
Like a note, black and white
And tonight, I'll be the one that had to let you go
And tonight, I'll be the first that had to let you know
Now, the fear, it stands between you
When you learn, you will turn
Sing a song for me, now baby
Sing a song for me, my love
But I must never let you know
When you dance, you will learn
She said, “Goodnight, my lover”
Sing a song for me, now darling
Goodnight, my lover
When you look, you will have what you own
Now, the fear, it stands between you
Sing a song for me, now baby
I could hear her move, I could hear you call
Sing a song for me, now darling
When you dance, you will learn
I'm thinking of her
When you look, you will have what you own
Of the love we once erased, means we hide no more
When you look, you will have what you own
For there are many a things I've learned
Tonight, I'll be the one that had to let you go
And all through the night, like a rag doll
For tonight, I'll be the first that had to let you know
I'm thinking of her
Does it hurt so much to see you?
And tonight, I'll be the one that had to let you go
And tonight, I'll be the first that had to let you know
I'm thinking of her
Like a note, black and white
For there are many a things I've learned
When you dance, you will learn
For tonight, I'll be the first that had to let you know
Sing a song for me, my love
When you learn, you will turn
Goodnight, my lover
