Mister, so you have to go away, yeah
I love you like a sister, mother, wife
And should you not return
I guess I'll love you all my life

Mister, it's so very hard to say goodbye
I love you yesterday, today, until I die
You think you have to run before you really wanna stay, yeah
But if you wanna go, you'd better go

La, la, la
Yeah, if you wanna go then go
I'll place an extra pillow on my double bed
If on your travels you need a place to rest you weary head
Remember me

Mister, it's so very hard to say goodbye
I love you yesterday, today, until I die
And should you not return
I guess I'll love you all my life
