Kissing You Goodbye Lyrics - John Denver

Oh, at first it was like heaven in your heart and in your arms 

And paradise discovered in the sweetness of your charms 

Yes, and every day a miracle to awake and be with you 

And every night in your embrace another dream come true 

But castles sometimes crumble some rivers still run dry 

And fairy tales are witches tales when the truth becomes a lie 

And a pocket full of promises won't buy a diamond ring 

And every word you said to me just didn't mean a thing 

It's over now, you've gone too far, I can't take anymore 

Be careful now don't hurt yourself when you walk through that door 

I can hardly stand to look at you it makes me want to cry 

Get your tongue out of my mouth because I'm kissing you goodbye

Now I suppose I'll never know why things turned out this way 

And why the one you love the most is the one you drove away 

Yes, and I suppose I'll never, ever really understand 

How I could think that you'd make me a happy married man 

So now I sit and contemplate the reason for it all 

The climb to heights of ecstasy the failure and the fall 

If a broken heart is purposeful it's in the lesson learned 

No matter what the reason is it hurts when you get burned

Now I don't care, I don't think I'll ever love again 

Kemosabe used to me good and trusted friend 

But now it stands for therapy and all the tears I cry 

Get your tongue out of my mouth 'cause I'm kissing you goodbye 

Bye-bye, goodbye 

Get your tongue out of my mouth 'cause I'm kissing you goodbye
