Every Time We Say Goodbye

Every Time We Say Goodbye
music & lyric by Cole Porter

We love each other so deeply that I ask you this, sweetheart,
Why should we quarrel ever.
Why can't we be enough clever
Never to part?

Every time we say goodbye I die a little.
Every time we say goodbye I wonder why a little,
Why the gods above me who must be in the know think so little of me
They allow you to go.

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it.

There's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor
Every time we say goodbye,
Every single time we say goodbye...
