Well, I don't know how things got that way, but... but three irreversible goodbyes in my life either occurred on or were somewhat related to October 23.

Railroad station, midnight trains,
Lonely airports in the rain
And somebody stands there with tears in their eyes
It's the same old scene, time after time,
That's the trouble with all mankind
Somebody's always saying goodbye.
Taxi cabs leave in the night,
Greyhound buses with red tail lights
Someone's leaving, someone's left behind
Well, I don't know how things got that way
But every place you look these days
Somebody's always saying goodbye
Take two people like me and you
We could have made it, we just quit too soon
Oh, the two of us, we could have had it all
If we'd only tried
But that's the way love is, it seems
Just when you've got a real good thing
Somebody's always saying goodbye
Somebody's always saying goodbye
