Lyrics Goodbye My Love - James Brown

You know, sometimes a man, a woman, makes a mistake
Try to find a reason for making a mistake
But there's no reason to make a mistake

The only thing you can do when you make a mistake is say, "I'm sorry"
It takes a man or a woman to say, "I'm sorry"
And it takes a fool to walk away

So right here I wanna say, "I'm sorry"
I don't know where you are, but you know I need you
Now there's one more thing I'd like to say right here

I could say, maybe you just don't understand
I could say, baby, I believe you got another man
And then I could say, I just can't help myself
But I wouldn't be a man

And then I could say, maybe you don't have nothing left
But I want you to know I still love you
Oh, no matter where you go, I still love you
Oh, oh take it down, Jimmy

Goodbye my love, throwing me away
Goodbye my love

There's one more thing, you know
To have somebody to worry when you worry
To feel the need of a real person when your friends drop you behind
To kill your anger just by being nice and kind

I could say, if you leave it wouldn't bother me
But I know that would be a lie
'Cause baby, deep down inside you bother me
That I want you to know, and I don't care who knows

I still love you
Woah, oh, I still love you
Oh, oh take it down, Jimmy

Now look at you
You always been in my corner, never let me be a loner
There's one more thing I'd like to say right here
You told me that no one would ever be able to take my place
That every time the feeling was nice and you followed my embrace

You said everything would be alright
You had no other love, no, no other person in your sight
You said there would be another
There would never, never, never be another
And I believed you, I believed you
Yes, I believed you, 'cause I want you to know

I still love you
Woah, oh, I still love you
I don't care who knows, no, woah
Take it down, Jimmy

Goodbye my love, you've thrown me away
Goodbye my love, you've thrown me away
You've thrown, you've thrown me away

You walked away from me, tell me why?
You walked away from me, just one more thing
Just one more thing I got to say right here
Just one more thing I got to say right here

I still love you
Woah, oh, yeah, I still love you
Woah, oh, oh
Take it down, Jimmy

Goodbye my love, so long baby
Goodbye my love, you've thrown me away
You've thrown me away, you've thrown me away
