I have been listening to this song for 4 years now, and I will tell you now, i will never ever get bored of listening to this song and Rumer, full stop (period) ( I am English but live in the USA) :)
God, I hope this kind of music (even the arrangement- harmonica, electric guitars, harmonies- very Carpenters-esque) takes off in the U.S.! I may actually listen to the radio again- well done, Rumer! :)
I accidentally heard this song few year ago, I fell in love with it right away. Then I looked for her album and I'm glad I did because her music is so beautiful and inspiring, it makes me feel calm and ease. I wish artists like her would get more recognition they deserve.
Nam Truong I agree Nam, i accidentally found her about 3 or 4 years ago on youtube.Her voice is beautiful and her CD Seasons of my soul well there is not a bad song on it.It should have received a grammy..
I never knew she sang this song or other songs that she sings so beautifully.. If not for her being on Daryl's house, I never would have known about her. She's got class and she was great on the Daryl's House episode. Comparing her music to the filth you hear today all over the place, she must be an Angel and a much needed one at that.
Sarah, Rumer,... you have such a calming beautiful voice... it is a real caress to my ears and heart. Thank you. Discovered your music accidentally and IMO you deserve more fame.
Ah, the glamour of the recording studio! Stick the trumpet player in a booth, drape old removal blankets on it and chuck a giant slab of polystyrene on top...that should shut him up a bit! What a beautiful version of this timeless classic. Stunning vocal, and a great sensitive arrangement so skillfully played by all.
This brought tears to my eyes. Superb vocals, fabulous arrangement & very reminiscent of the hugely talented Karen Carpenter. This song transported me back to my childhood years, hearing this on the radio, during the summer holidays. Happy Days!
I had just said to my Aunt Janet,looked up and some one else had said the same thing.!!! Karen was such a sweet heart and I too ,loved her music. This young woman is very talented
Her voice is like Karen Carptener when I've first heard this song. She replays one of the goldies oldies that recalls some memeories hidden in our hearts which are nearly forgotten. I will give her a "like".
When I left the comment here, it was 11 years ago. There have been a lot of changes within these periods in the entire world while I am looking back. Goodbye our past.
I, too heard her for the first time on NPR today.....The clarity and purity of her heartfelt vocals, reminded me of other artists from an earlier era. BRAVO!
Paulla - We never said Goodbye! - I promised you I would contact you - And God only knows I have tried - But fate that thrust us together, has done it's Damndest to keep us apart! Thankyou for sharing
david gates is the classic...but this...is...wow...just wow!!!!! awesome voice and exceptional cover and adaptation...absolutely floored by the talent of this artist...still floored....
Rumer, you are without a shadow of a doubt, the best female vocalist the genaration has seen, and this song just blows me away, (at a time in my life when it has so many reasons to) Thank you,..x
This has always been one of my favourite songs by David Gates in his days with Bread. Have to say that Rumer makes a good job of this cover. Of course, when a song is superb in the first place, a cover version always has a chance.
So remember goodbye doesn't mean forever. Let me tell ya goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again. Though we maybe so far apart, you still would have my heart. So forget your past, my goodbye girl 'cause now your home at last
The song and the voice oft this woman are just magic. If you take a look at the video two or three times you can find artistic scenes created like photographs that suits perfect with the lyrics. Love it.... Cheers from Mexico City
I can't help hear Karen Carpenter in Rumers opening lifts when she starts in a scale. Karen was one of the best at phrasing a song. Frank Sinatra also comes to mind. This is a good thing when you think of the comparisons . Most can't compare, for the sound doesn't justify the comparison. Rumer does this with such grace and ease. Amazing vocalist . I would like to hear he do more of her own songs. Great job
Rumer, I went to high school with Rob's sister Andie, I would love to have an autograph on my guitar from you & Rob if you get down to Seark sometime. Love the new tunes!
this is such a charming tune!!! i could hear it over and over and it will still be so special to listen to!!! such a valuable member of the music business!!!!! LONG MAY YOUR SUCCESS CONTINUE!!!!! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Yeah this was on the radio a few hours ago and I asked my mum who it was and she said "Umm Carpenters"...and I was like what's it called and she was like "Goodbye something"...and I was like I own enough Carpenters albums, how would I pass a beaut like this, just checked the station and it's this. Stunning!
when i first heard Rumer's voice (slow) it made quivers run down my spine this song does exactly the same ....I was and still am a devout carpenters fan and to compare Rumer's voice to Karen's should be a real compliment to her, my only regret is Why has she only now become well known ...think off all all the years we have missed her beautiful voice ...keep up the good work Rumer xxxx
All your life you've waited for love to come and stay And now that I have found you, you must not slip away I know it's hard believin' the words you've heard before But darlin' you must trust them just once more 'Cause baby goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean We'll never be together again If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't be long away 'Cause the things you do my goodbye girl Will bring me back to you I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt again You fight the love you feel for me instead of givin' in But I can wait forever, helpin' you to see That I was meant for you and you for me 'Cause goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again Though we may be so far apart you still will have my heart So forget your past my goodbye girl 'Cause now you're home at last Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever 💟💟💟
Oi sou novo no seu canal e sou do Brasil. Ouvi a sua musicas em uma rádio. Nossa que voz linda suas músicas me acalmam e são lindas ( você também é linda ) bom vou sempre te ouvir aqui no RUclips. Beijos fique com Deus
Really like this. I wish Rumer would do some of the Carpenters numbers as her voice has the same distinctive depth and quality of Karen Carpenter. The same style of music as the Carpenters certainly evokes some happy childhood memories.
All your life you've waited for love to Come and stay And now that I have found you, you must Not slip away I know it's hard believin' the words you've Heard before But darlin' you must trust them just once More, 'cause baby Goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean We'll never be together again If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't Be long away 'Cause the things you do my Goodbye Girl Will bring me back to you. I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt Again You fight the love you feel for me instead Of givin' in But I can wait forever, a-helpin' you to see That I was meant for you and you for me so remember Goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean We'll never be together again Though we may be so far apart you still Will have my heart So forget your past my Goodbye Girl 'Cause now you're home at last.
I have been listening to this song for 4 years now, and I will tell you now, i will never ever get bored of listening to this song and Rumer, full stop (period) ( I am English but live in the USA) :)
My mum calls me her goodbye girl because I emigrated to Australia 3 years ago and said goodbye! Very emotional for me, great song, love it.
Wow, my new favorite female vocalist. Wonderful.
Me too!!!!!
So simple yet so beautiful! Wish the gems don't get burried in the sand of time or hidden behind the glaring lights of social media!
God, I hope this kind of music (even the arrangement- harmonica, electric guitars, harmonies- very Carpenters-esque) takes off in the U.S.! I may actually listen to the radio again- well done, Rumer! :)
My heart's so crushed. So I just kept on listening to this song. It makes me feel better.
I hope it’s not crushed because mine is 20 years later

Love how she sings this, it brings back memories of the 70's but she has her own style as well.

Goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again. Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Her voice gives me goosebumps...effortless like Karen Carpenter. Wow well worth the wait for a voice like this ...C x

What a beautiful version of this timeless classic. Stunning vocal, and a great sensitive arrangement so skillfully played by all.
Such a wonderful, warm, classy voice. Blissful !
This brought tears to my eyes. Superb vocals, fabulous arrangement & very reminiscent of the hugely talented Karen Carpenter. This song transported me back to my childhood years,
hearing this on the radio, during the summer holidays. Happy Days!
I had just said to my Aunt Janet,looked up and some one else had said the same thing.!!!
Karen was such a sweet heart and I too ,loved her music.
This young woman is very talented
so easy on the ears.what a lovely voice rumer has. a comfy chair a cup of tea.and this song playing. ahhh bliss.
Great to hear (new) music with real instruments, colour, light and shade and beautiful harmonies!
Remember going to see the movie Goodbye Girl and was a David Gates fan since teen years .A really great cover by Rumer
Her voice is like Karen Carptener when I've first heard this song. She replays one of the goldies oldies that recalls some memeories hidden in our hearts which are nearly forgotten. I will give her a "like".
When I left the comment here, it was 11 years ago. There have been a lot of changes within these periods in the entire world while I am looking back. Goodbye our past.
David's songs almost all have FOREVER theme in them. He explained WHY in his 2003 concert. Everybody went away with tears in their eyes.
Beautifully sung. Warm, gorgeous voice. Thank you Rumer!
I, too heard her for the first time on NPR today.....The clarity and purity of her heartfelt vocals, reminded me of other artists from an earlier era. BRAVO!
this video captures the essence of the person - stunning
Paulla - We never said Goodbye! - I promised you I would contact you - And God only knows I have tried - But fate that thrust us together, has done it's Damndest to keep us apart!
Thankyou for sharing
david gates is the classic...but this...is...wow...just wow!!!!! awesome voice and exceptional cover and adaptation...absolutely floored by the talent of this artist...still floored....
No song captures hesitation and loneliness than this Bread cover. I wonder where Rumer is now, this is one great track by her.
Is that a joke about Rumer Willis? Seriously, she is not Rumer WILLIS!
Angela Smith
My bad, Angela. Apologies for mixing the two people. And thank you for pointing it out.
Angela Smith
There, I corrected myself :)
She's in America recording her next album, in Arkansas.
Still sounds beautiful in 2021. When a song is so well-written that whoever cover it still sounds good. Just like Lennon's Across The Universe
She fills the room with beautiful songs.
LOVE her voice! ♥
A wonderful voice - such soaring vocals. And yes, I too thought this was a KC track.
wonderful, simply wonderful!
Another winner for Rumer.
Rumer, you are without a shadow of a doubt, the best female vocalist the genaration has seen, and this song just blows me away, (at a time in my life when it has so many reasons to) Thank you,..x
Oh just so wonderful.... great cover... really suits her voice, her style. She really is SO talented!
I miss these old beautiful days.
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Who’s crying listening to RUMER!?
Wonderful backup singers and harmonies.
Walter, thanks for staying inside on that rainy day. I do believe that inspired Rumer to record this !
beautiful. From one of my favourite films. Her voice is amazing
I love this song very much.
Her songs always heal me.
both versions are great!
beautiful voice.
This has always been one of my favourite songs by David Gates in his days with Bread. Have to say that Rumer makes a good job of this cover. Of course, when a song is superb in the first place, a cover version always has a chance.
love this really makes yu feel all your emotions at once xx
So remember goodbye doesn't mean forever.
Let me tell ya goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again.
Though we maybe so far apart, you still would have my heart.
So forget your past, my goodbye girl 'cause now your home at last
What a great singer. It's a great song as well. Sarah is amazing!!
Rumer and Katie Malua are awesome...its music in every way
amazing song.the film is even better
Whats the name of the film ?
Her voice reminds Karen Carpenter's voice. It's lovely.❤❤
I love this song! Beautiful voice, beautiful sentiment; like a new dawn on old worries and lost loves...
Can't find great music nowadays... Finally, I found someone can really sing well!!
Rumer has so much class.she is awesome
I love her voice!
LOVE THIS
The song and the voice oft this woman are just magic. If you take a look at the video two or three times you can find artistic scenes created like photographs that suits perfect with the lyrics. Love it.... Cheers from Mexico City
Didn't read the title properly and thought it's a new song, lol.
Great video, can't wait for the next album!

All your life you've waited for love to come and stay
And now that I have found you, you must not slip away
I know it's hard believin' the words you've heard before
But darlin' you must trust them just once more
'Cause baby goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
We'll never be together again
If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't be long away
'Cause the things you do my goodbye girl
Will bring me back to you
I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt again
You fight the love you feel for me instead of givin' in
But I can wait forever, helpin' you to see
That I was meant for you and you for me
'Cause goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart you still will have my heart
So forget your past my goodbye girl
'Cause now you're home at last
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever

WOW WOW GREAT VOICE LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
Would love to dedicate this one to You Know Who You Are
Oi sou novo no seu canal e sou do Brasil. Ouvi a sua musicas em uma rádio. Nossa que voz linda suas músicas me acalmam e são lindas ( você também é linda ) bom vou sempre te ouvir aqui no RUclips. Beijos fique com Deus
i so love her voice!! reminds me of karen carpenter
such a beautiful voice♥
Great to hear these songs again after many years. Her voice reminds me more of Dusty Springfield than Karen Carpenter.
The best female voice since KC
Música original é do Bread más ficou legal com o grupo humer
Really like this. I wish Rumer would do some of the Carpenters numbers as her voice has the same distinctive depth and quality of Karen Carpenter. The same style of music as the Carpenters certainly evokes some happy childhood memories.
Adeus as vezes não quer dizer para sempre!♥
Que interpretação fodástica. Gosto de ouvir com Bread, mas essa voz é maravilhosa
I came here hoping to hear a Bread cover and I did! Love this version
really like the song on her voice...
All your life you've waited for love to
Come and stay
And now that I have found you, you must
Not slip away
I know it's hard believin' the words you've
Heard before
But darlin' you must trust them just once
More, 'cause baby
Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
We'll never be together again
If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't
Be long away
'Cause the things you do my Goodbye Girl
Will bring me back to you.
I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt
Again
You fight the love you feel for me instead
Of givin' in
But I can wait forever, a-helpin' you to see
That I was meant for you and you for me so remember
Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
We'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart you still
Will have my heart
So forget your past my Goodbye Girl
'Cause now you're home at last.
Amo essa música, ai ai que romântica! rs
bella voz! me recuerda a Carpenter...preciosa canción!!!!
love this song...to my past
