HOW MANY TIMES CAN WE SAY GOODBYE

Steven Goldman

(album: BUSY BODY - 1983) Duet with Dionne Warwick Here we are so close to the end now

Still holding on we try and pretend now

Clinging to love we both know is dying

We've tried and tried to find us a way out

But darling our dreams have now all been played out

Still we go on hopelessly trying Chorus:

But how many times can we say goodbye

Hos many times can we see love die

How many times can we give it one more try

Before we really say goodbye We're so in love but wrong for each other

Each hurt that heals brings on another

Both of us used and both of us using

Darling it's time that we stop pretending

There's just no way to rewrite our ending

We're caught in this game

And we know we're both losing Repeat Chorus Bridge:

How many times can we break up and make up

Both of our hearts refusing to wake up

Just can't go on and on living a lie

Though I'll always love you Repeat Chorus and Fade
