All that I need is just a piece of paper
Say a few lines, make up my mind
So she can read it later, when I'm gone
Elisa, goodbye, Elisa

All that I need is just a quiet corner
Bring to the light, things I must write
Got to get it over with, choose
Elisa, goodbye, Elisa

The song that I sing
The times I've tried to hide it
I'm sorry to say, I'm going away
That's what I've decided on
I've tried
Elisa, goodbye, Elisa

Goodbye, Elisa
Elisa, goodbye
Elisa, goodbye
