[Verse 1]
You ask me to read this letter
That you wrote the night before
And you really should know better
'Cause she's worth a whole lot more
[Chorus]
Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
You won't go and say goodbye?
[Verse 2]
Then you said the fault was yours
And you really were to blame
'Twas as if to close the doors
And to hide away in shame
[Chorus]
Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
You won't go and say goodbye?
[Bridge]
Yes, and why, tell me why
Can't you see that it's not right?
It's a lie, it's a lie
Don't hide your sorrow in the night
[Chorus]
Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
You won't go and say goodbye?
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
And I know the pain is double
But for her it's even worse
You must face her with the trouble
Though it's hurting like a curse
[Chorus]
Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
You won't go and say goodbye?
[Outro]
Brother, you know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry, is that why
You won't go and say, gotta go and say, gotta go and say goodbye
