I Couldnt Say Goodbye
Tom Jones
Tom Jones I Couldn’t Say Goodbye I play banjo so I have it capo at 3 tuning G [Verse] I watch you as you’re sleeping As I’m standing at the door I don’t want to let you go But I can’t hold on anymore I just can’t find the strength To say I’m leaving you It’s over now it’s over now And there’s nothing I can do [Chorus] I couldn’t say goodbye Couldn’t stand the pain Couldn’t watch you cry Knowing that your heart would break So I let you sleep Till the morning light When you wake up and you read the note I write Telling you that I I couldn’t say goodbye [Verse] I’m walking down this rainy street Thinking you’re awake by now As you read my letter And the tears fall from your eyes Just know I tried to make it work It just wasn’t meant to be I needed you I needed you But not the way you needed me [Chorus] I couldn’t say goodbye Couldn’t stand the pain Couldn’t watch you cry Knowing that your heart would break So I let you sleep Till the morning light When you wake up and you read the note I write Telling you that I I couldn’t say goodbye [Bridge] I didn’t mean to hurt you I didn’t want to make you cry It’s over now yes it’s over now I just couldn’t say goodbye [Chorus] I couldn’t say goodbye Couldn’t stand the pain Couldn’t watch you cry Knowing that your heart would break So I let you sleep Till the morning light When you wake up and you read the note I write Telling you that I I couldn’t say goodbye
