So
you say you're going away now
Can't say I blame you girl
Say you're going so far away I'll never see you again
Well that's up to you girl
Well we've had a long time
And only talked a bit
Sat around drinking cider and things
Sometimes even getting a little pissed
Yeah I guess you'd better be gone
Could
have been nicer I suppose girl
Maybe we could have gone to bed
But with all those other fellas all trying it out on you
Thought I'd just talk to you instead
So we just
sat and we talked a while
Sometimes even held hands
I often ignored you when I had a lay in mind
But next day always told you like a friend
Yeah I guess you'd better be gone
So go home get married like a good girl
Maybe you'll even fall in love with him
Go home have some nice little babies in the right and proper way
Then you can go back on your good old pill
Guess I shouldn't have told you I loved you
girl After all these years as friends
You don't know what it means girl
You don't just say that thing in bed
Yeah I guess you'd better be gone
But I've just one last thing to say to you girl
Before you take that journey home
You're all nice and secure in your new little world
I'll still be far from alone
I've fallen in love many times
And I've often let it hurt
You're never gonna understand what all that means
But maybe it's easier on your nerves
Yeah I guess you'd better be gone
