Long distance, last goodbye   We can't give it one last try   It's all over, we didn't even cry      All I know is the world came between us and the love got left behind   No news flash, funeral, half-mast flags on the day that our love died   I'd tell you face to face if I could look you in the eye   So I just called to say goodbye      Did you burn my pictures yet?   Anything to try to forget   It's all I can do just to stay on the line      All I know is the world came between us and the love got left behind   No news flash, funeral, half-mast flags on the day that our love died   I'd tell you face to face if I could look you in the eye   So I just called to say goodbye      We both know how hard it is for both of us to try   We both know how hard it is in Richmond in July   So what am I supposed to say?    And how’s the weather anyway?   This time I called to say goodbye      Who would’ve though it’d end like this, without even a goodbye kiss   No one can say we didn't try      All I know is the world came between us and the love got left behind   No news flash, funeral, half-mast flags on the day that our love died   I'd tell you face to face if I could look you in the eye   So I just called to say, there's nothing really left to say   This time I called to say goodbye
