Please, please, please,   Don't waste your love on me   You know I would, only if I could   But don't waste your love on me      Please, don't wear your velvet dress tonight   Because if you do I think I might break down on the dance floor      Life would be so free, if you could spend the day with me   In a summer breeze   I know that it sounds nice, but I could never pay that price   Oh, say goodnight      Goodnight, sadness   No more heartache   Goodbye, summertime girl      You, you, you, you've got that look upon your face   The one that breaks me into millions of pieces   You, you know I'll follow you around   I'll even go downtown, though I wasn't invited      You know I hate this place, last time they hit me in the face   And I went back home   Come and take my hand, some people just don't understand   And they never will, no they never will, no they never will   No, they're never gonna get it      You always used to be a shy one   'Till we moved out west    Now you're pulling all the same old tricks   That you pulled on all the rest      Now we're saying      Goodnight, sadness   No more heartache   Goodbye, summertime girl
