I'll say goodbye to love
No one ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again the chance for love
has passed me by
And all I know of love
is how to live without it
I just can't seem to find it.
So I've made my mind up I must live
my life alone
And though it's not the easy way
I guess I've always known
I'd say goodbye to love.
There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
And I'll find that there is someone to believe in
And to live for something I could live for.
All the years of useless search
Have finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my
only friend
>From this day love is forgotten
I'll go on as best I can.
What lies in the future
is a mystery to us all
No one can predict the wheel of fortune
as it falls
There may come a time when I will see that
I've been wrong
But for now this is my song.
And it's goodbye to love
I'll say goodbye to love.
( 1972 )

What is the meaning behind Goodbye To Love lyrics?
When we take a closer look at its interpretation, the Carpenters’ song ‘Goodbye To Love’ signals no turning back and full surrender to a life without love, thus, charting a road that was giving up on the very idea of love. The lyrical content is more like a gloomy tale of one’s solitude, failed attempts, and doubts about the future which, in the end, is the lonely state of being and the death of love concept that the person is accepting. The lyrics of Goodbye to love basically revolve around themes of heartbreak, despair, angst, solitude, and reflection. However, the song also tries to highlight the flip sides of these events i.e., the importance of heartbreak and loss, loneliness and solitude, and resignation and acceptance.

This song is really sad. The person appears to accept that they are a loser in love. What eyeopening beauty, sorrow and awareness. The story of my life.
