I tell ya It's hell yeah When love says goodbye it's a four letter word Because your heart knows When love goes The feeling is bad - it's the pits of the world It's sad but true When nothing you can do, can bring it back Standing in the rain She starts to cry Is it all a game She wonders why Why it had to start Why should it end, and take her apart Because she shows it She knows it But what can she do, it's a four letter word Because it shakes you It breaks you And when it's the end, it's the worst thing you heard It's over now And nothing you can do can bring it back Calling out his name She starts to cry Guys are all the same She wants to die Hide away the tears No-one will see, and no-one must hear But oh How can the love that she has be profain And how can something that's so beautiful Just Jeckyl and Hyde around It's so sad... I tell ya It's hell yeah When love says goodbye It's a four letter word Because your heart knows When love goes The feeling is bad it's the worst in the world It's sad but true When nothing you can do, can get it back Standing in the rain She starts to cry Shouting out is name Four letter words
