When Your Lover Says Goodbye - Coco/1970 Original Broadway Cast/Remastered
What is losing a woman, exactly?
When you're young
It's like losing a watch in Switzerland
When you're my age
It's like two extra weeks in Baden-Baden
When your lover says goodbye
Wise are they who know
When your lover says goodbye
Let her go
When your lover flies away
Sad are they who learn
There can be a darker day
Her return
She was kind to leave, my friend
Now you'll have a field day
You're a fool to grieve, my friend
This is your Bastille Day
When your lover says goodbye
Wise men all agree
There can be but one reply
"Leave the key"
When your lover says goodbye
You are spared the worst
Lasting love that doesn't die
Kills you first
When your lover says goodbye
Says "Cherie, we're through"
Hold her in your arms and sigh
"Toodle-oo"
"Au devoir"
"May you stay well and far"
For no sweeter words can love supply
Than "hello"
And "goodbye"
When you're young
It's like losing a watch in Switzerland
When you're my age
It's like two extra weeks in Baden-Baden
When your lover says goodbye
Wise are they who know
When your lover says goodbye
Let her go
When your lover flies away
Sad are they who learn
There can be a darker day
Her return
She was kind to leave, my friend
Now you'll have a field day
You're a fool to grieve, my friend
This is your Bastille Day
When your lover says goodbye
Wise men all agree
There can be but one reply
"Leave the key"
When your lover says goodbye
You are spared the worst
Lasting love that doesn't die
Kills you first
When your lover says goodbye
Says "Cherie, we're through"
Hold her in your arms and sigh
"Toodle-oo"
"Au devoir"
"May you stay well and far"
For no sweeter words can love supply
Than "hello"
And "goodbye"
