lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Eye contact
And that was that.
One look
Was all it took.
Walked through the door
You didn’t matter anymore.
Knees weak
I couldn’t speak.

I tip my hat
To every man
I reject, no disrespect
When you t-t-tip your hand.
I can’t resist
One look of his.
You were swell
You know I wish you well,
When I offer this

[CHORUS]
Goodbye Romeo
You were so nice to know
But I gotta move, I gotta move
I gotta-gotta move you on.

Farewell my shinin’ knight
The gloves are off, no need to fight
I gotta move, you gotta move,
I gotta-gotta move you on,
I got a new man.

[VERSE 2]
Don’t look back
Oh, it’s a fact.
In front of him, I
I feel alive again.
He’s got that,
I don’t know, but I just
Got to go.
It may be rough
And so you better stay tough.

And tip your hat
To every man
I reject, no disrespect
When you t-t-t-t-tip your hand.
I can’t resist
One look of his
You were swell,
And I wish you well
When I offer this

[CHORUS]
Goodbye Romeo
You were so nice to know
But I gotta move, I gotta move
I gotta-gotta move you on.

Farewell my shinin’ knight
The gloves are off, no need to fight
I gotta move, you gotta move,
I gotta-gotta move you on,
I got a new man.


[BRIDGE]
It sounds so
Cold and heartless.
And maybe I,
Ah-ah-I’m a bitch.
But baby
Forgive me
‘cause ah-ah-I
I got another scratch to itch.

[OUTRO]
Goodbye, Romeo
You were so
So nice to know.
Farewell, my shinin’ knight
The gloves are off
No need to fight
I got a new man.

Goodbye Romeo
You were so nice to know
But I gotta move, I gotta move
I gotta-gotta move you on.

Farewell my shinin’ knight
The gloves are off, no need to fight
I gotta move, you gotta move,
I gotta-gotta move you on,
I got a new man.
