(Ooooo, Ooooo)
  I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear
  You never listen when I talk
  Maybe you'll listen when I walk
  So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
  And I didn't shed a tear
  I gave you one last minute of my time
  In this mess I left behind
  When you come home tonight
  And turn on the light
  Don't you be surprised to find
    [Chorus 1]
  My little good-byes
  Empty hangers by the closet door
  Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
  My little good-byes
  Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
  I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel
  Little good-byes, little good-byes
    I'm sure, you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
  You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
  They always said it better than you
  And if you're wondering
  When you're gonna hear from me
  Well, take a real good look around boy
  And it won't hard to see
  When you come home tonight and turn on the light
  Don't you be surprised to find
    [Chorus 2]
  My little good-byes
  Took your favorite Dodger's hat
  Left the litter, but I took the cat
  My little good-byes
  Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
  Have fun watching the VCR
  Little good-byes, oh baby, little good-byes
    [Bridge]
  So, cry to your mama
  And your sympathetic friends and tell'em
  And tell them how the story ends
    [Chorus 3]
  My little good-byes
  Took the hourglass, left the sand
  Now you got time on your hands
  My little good-byes
  Took the statue from Japan
  Funny little Buddha man
    [Chorus 4]
  My little good-byes
  Change my voice on the machine
  Or there'll be little good-byes with every ring
  My little good-byes
  Left the pictures and took the frame
  I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain
  Yeah, yeah, yeah,
  Little good-byes
  Rain - yeah, yeah, yeah
  Little good-byes
  Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
  Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
  Little good-byes
