I Don't Want to Say Goodbye [Teddy Thompson]

I don't want to say goodbye
Let the stars shine through.
I don't want to say goodbye
All I want to do is live with you.

Just like the light of the morning
After the darkness has gone
The shadow of my love is falling
On a place where the sun always shone.

Don't you know that's where our hearts both belong?

'Cause I don't want to say goodbye.
Let the stars shine through.
No, I don't want to say goodbye
All I want to do is live with you.

Together our two hearts are strong
Don't you know that's where our hearts both belong?

'Cause I don't want to say goodbye
Let the stars shine through.
I don't want to say goodbye




All I want to do is live with you
All I want to do is live with you

I was born in 1977, this is magic to my ears. Childhood in the 80s was the absolute best.

Quite possibly one of the catchiest songs of 1983 and beyond. I never seem to get tired of this song. So many interesting and catchy elements and it just has a positive vibe.

@pauliep633

1986 this came out

@rickmitchell2973

Definitely a summer hit back in 86. Along with Sledgehammer and Who made Who. Fond memories sitting pool side in Hamilton Ont 🙂
