The Velvelettes
Throw A Farewell Kiss
If there's someone else in this world in love
More than me (than me)
I won't be selfish, boy
I'll just set you free
And when you're leaving, I won't cry and I won't sigh
I'll just say the words 'goodbye'
And throw you a kiss
Yeah baby, just a farewell kiss, mmm-hmm
Remember, it doesn't take much to make a girl cry (ahh)
So don't let it bother you, baby
When the tears start to fill my eyes
No, don't let my crying change your mind
Just tell me the words 'goodbye'
And throw me a kiss
Yeah baby, just a farewell kiss, mmm-hmm
I know the grass looks greener on the other side
But listen, you won't miss your water
Until your well runs dry
So listen now
When her love for you blows, oh yeah
And when you find yourself left in the cold, yeah
You've got to be strong when things go wrong
Just tell her the words 'goodbye'
And throw her a kiss
Yeah baby, just a farewell kiss, mmm
Something that you won't miss
Yeah baby, just a farewell kiss
