IT HURTS TO SAY GOODBYE This is the hour of parting, soon I must sail away. Now while the teardrops are starting just one more time let me say: Take me in your arms and hold me tight, tell me that your love is mine tonight. Say that everything will turn out right. It hurts to say goodbye. Let me know the thrill of your embrace, memories that time cannot erase. While I kiss the teardrops from your face it hurts to say goodbye. Wherever you are you will always be near to me. Wherever I go you'll be in my heart. 'Til the sun comes shining thru again, 'til we see a sky of blue again. 'Til I'm back with you, my love, 'til then it hurts to say goodbye. Wherever you are you will always be near to me. Wherever I go you'll be in my heart. 'Til the sun comes shining thru again, 'til we see a sky of blue again. 'Til I'm back with you, my love, 'til then it hurts to say goodbye. 'Til I'm back with you, my love, it hurts to say goodbye. - Jack Gold & Arnold Golan
