When I was young my dad would say
Come on son let's go out and play

No matter how hard I try
No matter how many tears I cry
No matter how many years go by
I still can't say goodbye

- "I Still Can't Say Goodbye," Performer: Chet Atkins

I'm looking through you, where did you go

I thought I knew you, what did I know

You don't look different, but you have changed

I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Your lips are moving, I cannot hear

Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear

You don't sound differnt, I've learned the game.

I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?

Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

You're thinking of me, the same old way

You were above me, but not today

The only difference is you're down there

I'm looking through you, any other way

Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?

Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

I'm looking through you, where did you go

I thought I knew you, what did I know

You don't look different, but you have changed

I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Yeah, baby you've changed

I'm looking through you

I'm Looking through you
