What's so good about goodbye?
All it does is make you cry.
Well, if leaving causes grieving,
And depart can break you heart, Tell me (what's so good about it)
I could have done without it.
What's so good about goodbye?

(Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeah
You better (uh-huh) shop around.

And they’re sitting around later, grieving, thinking about the wrong that they did to this person, and who’s loving that person now. There’s no way an 11-year-old child could know that. But this dude sang that song like he had written it, like he knew all about it. It became his song.

Don't be confused, the way is clear.
And if you want it, you got it forever.
This is not a one night stand, babe, yeah.

Just release and you will find You're gonna fly away, glad you're going my way.

The music is playing for love.
Cruisin' is made for love.
I love it when we're cruisin' together.
