Testo Goodbye Love

Mimi
It's true you sold your guitar and bought a car

Roger
It's true - I'm leaving now for Santa Fe
It's true you're with this yuppie scum?

Benny
You said you'd never speak to him again
Mimi
Now now

Maureen
Who said that you have any say
In who she says things to at all?

Roger
Yeah!

Joanne
Who said that you should
Stick your nose in other people's ...

Maureen
Who said I was talking to you?

Joanne Mark
We used to have this fight each night Calm down
She'd never admit I existed Everyone please

Mimi
He was the same way - he was always
"Run away - hit the road
Don't commit" - you're full of shit

Joanne
She's in denial

Mimi
He's in denial

Joanne
Didn't give an inch
When I gave a mile

Mark
Come on

Mimi
I gave a mile

Roger
Gave a mile to who?

Mark & Benny
Come on guys chill!

Mimi & Joanne
I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had
Someone to live for - unafraid to say I love you

Roger
All your words are nice Mimi
But love's not a three way street
You'll never share real love
Until you love yourself - I should know

Collins
You all said you'd be cool today
So please - for my sake...
I can't believe he's gone
I can't believe you're going (to Roger)
I can't believe this family must die
Angel helped us believe in love
I can't believe you disagree

All
I can't believe this is goodbye
[Maureen and Joanne reconcile and go home. Collins returns to
the funeral home. Mimi and Benny leave together. Roger and
Mark are left alone]

Mark
I hear there are great restaurants out west

Roger
Some of the best. How could she?

Mark
How could you let her go?

Roger
You just don't know ... How could we lose Angel?

Mark
Maybe you'll see why when you stop escaping your pain
At least now if you try - Angel's death won't be in vain

Roger
His death is in vain

Mark
Are you insane?
There so much to care about
There's me - there's Mimi

Roger
Mimi's got her baggage too

Mark
So do you

Roger
Who are you to tell me what I know, what to do

Mark
A friend

Roger
But who, Mark, are you?
"Mark has got his work"
They say "Mark lives for his work"
And "Mark's in love with his work"
Mark hides in his work

Mark
But from what?

Roger
From facing your failure, facing your loneliness
Facing the fact you live a lie
Yes, you live a lie - tell you why
You're always preaching not to be numb
When that's how you thrive
You pretend to create and observe
When you really detach from feeling alive

Mark
Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive

Roger
Poor baby

Mark
Mimi still loves Roger
Is Roger really jealous
Or afraid that Mimi's weak

Roger
Mimi did look pale

Mark
Mimi's gotten thin
Mimi's running out of time
Roger's running out the door

Roger
No more! Oh no!
I've gotta go

Mark
Hey, for somebody who's always been let down
Who's heading out of town?

Roger
For someone who longs for a community of his own,
Who's with his camera, alone?
I'll call
I hate the fall
(Mimi re-enters)
You heard?

Mimi
Every word
You don't want baggage without lifetime guarantees
You don't want to watch me die
I just came to say
Goodbye, love
Goodbye, love
Came to say goodbye, love, goodbye

Mimi Roger
Just came to say Glory
Goodbye love One blaze of
Goodbye love Glory
Goodbye love
Goodbye! Have to find
(Roger leaves, Benny enters)

Mimi
Please don't touch me
Understand
I'm scared
I need to go away

Mark
I know a place - a clinic

Benny
A rehab?

Mimi
Maybe - could you?

Benny
I'll pay

Mimi
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Came to say goodbye, love, goodbye
Just came to say
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Goodbye love
Hello disease
