Lyrics Goodbye - Joe Jackson

Ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Oh

Great to see you're doing better by yourself
It's just like you to be over me by now
So many things you'd think that I'd still care
So many things I know you're not aware

So say goodbye to the old me
And say hello to the new me
This time it's goodbye
And when you're wasting time
With all them other guys
This time I don't mind at all

I don't care at all I'm way past that now
Don't need you anymore
Overdone somehow
You were always wanting more
You were always proud
Even if it cost you lies
Can't outrun this town

I've seen this shit before like a premonition
Knew before I guessed it, knew I was neglected
Ever since we met you went away
Making up these stories I'm not playing your game

I tried to make it work
I'll live and you will learn
That difference of our worth
We'll get what we deserve

Great to see you're doing better by yourself
It's just like you to be over me by now
So many things you'd think that I'd still care
So many things I know you're not aware

So say goodbye to the old me
And say hello to the new me
This time it's goodbye
And when you're wasting time
With all them other guys
This time I don't mind at all

I'm so over you
It's the time that I love
Another one I don't want a girl
Need a woman I can trust
With that loyalty I deserve
I don't want to fuck
Want a better woman
Love me for myself

Off the jump
This is honestly what I need
I don't want to front
I don't need that insecurity
I need a queen, fuck
Just a matter of respect
A relationship that's strong
I don't never want a girl to tell me that she don't belong

I tried to make it work
I'll live and you will learn
That difference of our worth
We'll get what we deserve

Great to see you're doing better by yourself
It's just like you to be over me by now
So many things you'd think that I'd still care
So many things I know you're not aware

So say goodbye to the old me
And say hello to the new me
This time it's goodbye
And when you're wasting time
With all them other guys
This time I don't mind at all
