It's killing me to write the word goodbye
I've wadded up and tossed a thousand tries
We both know the reason,
there ain't nothing to explain
But I know that my leaving
will spare us both the pain
Desiree,
I can't hold you any longer Desiree,
love his money more than me
I guess all that's left to say
is until you drown to the bottom of the bay
It'd be
easier to leave if I were mad
But it's hard to
lose the best you'll ever have
And to write this note to you
was the hardest thing to do
It's hard as being a poor boy who can't afford a girl like you
Desiree,
I can't hold you any longer Desiree,
love his money more than me
The time sees end the game,
I guess all that's left to say
is until you drown to the bottom of the bay
Desiree,
I can't hold you any longer Desiree,
love his money more than me
The time sees end the game,
I guess all that's left to say
is until you drown to the bottom of the bay
I love you Desiree
I won't be around for your goodbyes Love his money more than me
