Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't want to make you cryBye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't want to make you cry
I'll be leaving you nowYou'll get along somehow
Time time is gone when you and I were strong
Time time is gone when you and I were strong
Isn't easy to leave, isn't easy to leave
You spend you life thinking about living
You spend your whole life
Bye bye baby bye byeDon't want to make you cry
Time time time is gone when you and I were strong
Time time time is gone when you and I were strong
Isn't easy to leave, isn't easy to leave
You spend your time sitting there thinking
Thinking about sitting there thinking
You waste my time talking about dieing
Dieing when you should be trying
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't want to make you cry
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
Don't want to make you cry
I'll be leaving you now
You'll get along somehow
Time time time is mine to make my fortune mine
Time time time is mine to make my fortune mine
Can't say I can see what'll happen to me
Can't say I can see what'll happen to me
bye bye baby bye bye...
