    Story Behind the Song
    This was originally titled "Sarcasm In Special Places." I wrote it years after a friend of mine became a good friend of mine because he caught his girlfriend cheating on him. Apparently he happened to come home early one day, knew something was going on and when she came home he tucked himself away in the closet while she called the other guy and in conversation said, "He knows." The song tells the rest of the story, sort of. Before all of this he was my guitar roadie in a New England band. He then became my roommate, someone to bum cigarettes from and bounce song ideas off of.

    Lyrics
    Goodbye
    ©2001 Sean McCarthy (ASCAP)

    Did you say something under your breath?
    Were you talkin' to me dear?
    'Cause I'm pretty sure you'll hear me laughin'
    As I walk right out of here

    This is your shirt you'll probably want it
    You should take all you can get
    By the way I don't know what's on it
    It was right there when we met

    In case you're wonderin' what this is all about
    In case you're wonderin' let me remove all doubt

    This is me kissing you goodbye
    With a smile upon my face
    This is your time signing off
    To a brand new place

    What in the world could I have been thinkin'?
    I guess I've been way out of touch
    I was buyin' a second hand car from the dealer
    My only question was "how much?"

    To say the least you took me for a ride
    Took me straight to hell
    But I'll make sure baby when I get back
    You won't be there to tell

    In case you're searchin' for the words to ask me why
    In case you're searchin' the only ones you'll need are bye-bye

    This is me kissing you goodbye
    With a smile upon my face
    This is your time signing off
    To a brand new place
    This is your world crashin' down
    I just need a little space
    Oh yeah, this is me
    With a smile upon my face

    In case you're wonderin' what it's all about
    In case you're wonderin' let there be no doubt

    This is me kissing you goodbye
    With a smile upon my face
    This is your time signing off
    To a brand new place
    This is your world crashin' down
    I just need a little space
    Oh yeah, this is me
    With a smile upon my face
