I'm gonna tell you something you don't want to hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made up my mind and made a sandwich
And I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behindYou'll come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My little good-byesEmpty hangers by the closet floor
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel
My little good-byesI'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if ya wonderin' if you're gonna hear from me
Well take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to seeWhen you come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My little good-byesTook your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter, but I took the cat
My little good-byes
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
My little good-byes
Little Good-byes, oh baby, little good-byesSo cry to your mom and your sympathetic friends
And tell 'em how the story endsMy Little Good-byes
Took the hourglass left the sand
Now you got time on your handsMy little good-byes
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddha manMy little good-byes
Changed my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little good-byes with every ring
My little good-byesLeft the pictures took the frames
Got the umbrella, here comes the rain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Rain, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah,yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Little Good-byes
