o.c. smith - sounds of goodbye lyrics

[intro]
goodbye…

[verse 1]
restless footsteps walkin’ down the hallway in the middle of the night
i start hearing little sounds, they comin’ so magnified here in the quiet
oh, the kitchen phone rings, and when you answer quickly
speaking in a whisper, i’m left to wonder why

[chorus]
i got a lonely feeling, that i’m hearing
the sounds of goodbye
(goodbye…)

[verse 2]
yeah, the stalkin’ feet that softly tip+toe through the room, where i lay half asleep
the cl!cking hangers, fumbling hands that close the closet door, that always creaks
thе snapping latches of the suitcase, that you carry with you to your mothеr’s
on those weekends, many times

[chorus]
i got a lonely feeling, that i’m hearing
oh, the sounds of goodbye
yes, the sounds of goodbye
(goodbye…)
[verse 3]
oh, the scratching of the pencil, writing words upon a note i’ll hate to read
(goodbye, goodbye, goodbye…)
the pounding in my heart, so loud it’s drowning out the words i want to speak
(goodbye, goodbye, goodbye…)
the kitchen light that switches off, while i lay here alone
and sudden darkness echoes through my mind

[chorus]
i got a lonely feeling, that i’m hearing
oh, the sounds of goodbye
yes, the sounds of goodbye

[verse 4]
yeah, the cl!cking of your high heels down the stairway
and across the marble floor
(goodbye, goodbye, goodbye…)
i call your name, and hear a deafening silence
and the closing of the door
(goodbye, goodbye, goodbye…)
a rolling mover in the street, a stranger’s cutting voice
and the violent rush of teardrops to my eyes

[outro]
i got a lonely feeling i’m hearing
eh, the sounds of goodbye
listen, i hear the sounds of goodbye
yeah, the restless footsteps, the stalkin’ feet
the scratching of a pencil…
