Short cut draw blood! Short cut draw blood! Short cut draw blood! Short cut draw blood! Goodbye Love Goodbye love I’m leavin’. I won’t bring you down. I can’t stand to see you grieving. So I’m just gettin’ out of town. It’s goodbye love. Goodbye love. Goodbye love. Goodbye love. I don’t wanna go and you know. I don’t wanna lose this good thing we found. I don’t wanna lose. It’ll only bring you down, love. We had a love hate relation. You know that’s no good girl. Something about you baby, it’s gotten into my blood. It’s goodbye love. Goodbye love. Goodbye love. Goodbye love. I don’t wanna go and you know. I don’t wanna lose this good thing we found. I don’t wanna lose. It’ll only bring you down, love. #jimcapaldi #Goodbyelove #ShortCutDrawBlood
