Joan Jett And The Blackhearts
"I Hate Long Goodbyes"

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

I did not give you nonsense
I never promised you
You seem to think there's more to this
Than a wham bam girl can do

Leavin' you is so intense
But I'll be back again
When I come to see you
Don't be askin' when

Whoa, stop your cryin'
(Stop your cryin')
Wipe those tears away
I said hey
I hate long good-byes
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes

I told you to get on it
I felt those butterflies
I knew that you were flippin' out
When I looked into your eyes

Oh, stop your cryin'
(Stop your cryin')
Wipe those tears away
I said hey
I hate long good-byes
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes

Don't you be neurotic
The moment was superb
And if you thought I loved you
I never said those words

Oh, stop your cryin'
(Stop your cryin')
Wipe those tears away
I said hey
I hate long good-byes
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')

I hate long good-byes
(Stop your cryin')
I hate long good-byes
