Notes
Martin Gore likened "Goodbye" to the music of The Beatles in a March 2013 Associated Press interview:
"It's a bad thing to say [that it sounds like The Beatles] because everyone is going to say, 'What are you talking about?' But it reminds me of The Beatles or something. That's a dangerous thing to say."[1]
Lyrics
Goodbye
It was you that took my soul
Threw it in the fire
Tamed it in the rapture
Filled me with desire
Now I'm pure, now I'm clean
I feel cured and serene
In you
There is no denying
How I have been changed
You won't hear me crying
Now misery is strange
I can dream, I can fly
Now it seems I get by
With you
Goodbye pain
Goodbye again
I was always looking
Looking for someone
Someone to stick my hook in
Pull it out and run
Now I'm caught on your line
All my thoughts are entwined
In you
Goodbye pain
Goodbye again
If you see me walking
To the golden gates
Turn around, start talking
Stop and hesitate
I'll be waiting up there
With my fate in the air
For you
Goodbye
