So this is how you say goodbye
|
You said you'd always try
|
Our love you brushed aside
|
|
And now (now), the days are cold and gray
|
The feeling's gone astray
|
The love that should not fade, babe
|
|
(Baby!) If you cannot come yourself,
|
Don't tell nobody else
|
No postcards on the shelf from you
|
(Let me down)
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Let me down easy, baby
|
Ease the pain in me
|
Let me down easy, honey
|
Why don't you set me free?
|
|
And since the day you turned away,
|
The memory's not gone away
|
Feels like yesterday every day
|
|
(Baby!) If you cannot come yourself,
|
Don't tell nobody else
|
No postcards on the shelf from you
|
(Let me down)
|
|
CHORUS (2x)
|
|
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
|
|
How can you be sure
|
The candle won't burn pure?
|
Just give me one more chance
|
Let me have this dance
|
(Let me down, let me down)
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Let me down easy
|
Let me down easy, love
|
So this is how you say goodbye
|
Then, bye-bye, baby, goodbye
|
Don't tell nobody else, please
|
No, don't tell, don't tell, don't tell nobody else
|
If you can't come yourself,
|
Why don't you be a man about it?
|
If you can't come yourself,
|
Then don't send nobody else
|
Why don't you be a man about it?
|
Won't you be a man about it?
|
(fade out)
