Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking”

But my darling, when I think of you.

“The mind has so many pictures
Why can't I sleep with my eyes open?
The mind has so many memories
Can you remember what it looks like when I cry?I'm trying, trying to tell you
All that I can in a sweet and velvet tongue
But no words ever could sell you
Sell you on me after all that I have done.”

You're the one I love and I think about you all the time.”

“What's so good about goodbye?
All it does is make you cry.
Well, if leaving causes grieving,
And depart can break you heart,

Tell me (what's so good about it)
I could have done without it.
What's so good about goodbye?”

Smokey Robinson (1940) American R&B singer-songwriter and record producer
