Lyrics and translation
Original
This is our last goodbye.
I hate to feel the love between us die, but it's over. Just hear this and then I'll go.
You gave me more than before, more than you'll ever know.
Well, this is our last embrace.
Must I dream and always see your face?
Why can't we overcome this and more? Babe, maybe it's just because
I didn't know you at all.
Kiss me, please kiss me.
Kiss me out of this, I beg, but not consolation.
Oh, you know it makes me so angry, 'cause I know that in time, I'll only make you cry.
This is our last goodbye.
Oh, no, no, no.
Did you say, "No, this can't happen to me"?
Did you rush to the phone to call?
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying maybe you didn't know him at all? You didn't know him at all.
Oh, you didn't know.
Oh, you didn't know.
Well, the bells out in the church tower chime, burning clues into this hard heart of mine.
Drinking so hard on a soft night, and the memory of our sights that it's all right.
It's all right.
