Hey, That’s No way to Say Goodbye was released in 1967 on Leonard Cohen’s album Songs of Leonard Cohen.   It is a song about the waning of a relationship.    It is written as a folk song, but with emotional depth that shows acceptance and reflection.    Cohen was a poet and the lyrics have a melancholy conversational tone.

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
