Goodbye Ruth
So goodbye Ruth
Yes it kills me to face the truth
Got to let you go
Why did I ever fall for you so
Do you know your name
Is an anagram of a word for pain
Which is what I go through
Everytime my mind drifts to you
It tears me right apart
Cos I never quite stole your heart
I look down at the floor
I can't bear this feeling any more
If you knew how I felt
Then maybe your heart would melt
If you'd let me in
I would guarantee your heart i'd win
So goodbye Ruth
Why does it hurt so, to face the truth
I know what this means
I guess i'll now fall apart at the seams.
Yes it kills me to face the truth
Got to let you go
Why did I ever fall for you so
Do you know your name
Is an anagram of a word for pain
Which is what I go through
Everytime my mind drifts to you
It tears me right apart
Cos I never quite stole your heart
I look down at the floor
I can't bear this feeling any more
If you knew how I felt
Then maybe your heart would melt
If you'd let me in
I would guarantee your heart i'd win
So goodbye Ruth
Why does it hurt so, to face the truth
I know what this means
I guess i'll now fall apart at the seams.
