buffalo springfield - go and say goodbye - stereo remix

Edit for headphones, June 2021. Source of the edit is the song on the 1966 album "Buffalo Springfield" (1997 ATCO remaster 62080-2). The remaster has this song in mono and also in (quite crappy) stereo, so, time to change that. It happens more often: a remaster with extra tracks, sometimes in stereo, and the latter in a hasty, quite crappy stereo mix. A big shame. For you can't buy the album with crappy dollars...
In 1966 this song was the b-side to their debut single "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing" (originally it was the single's A-side, but the producers decided to flip the sides).

GO AND SAY GOODBYE
(Richy Furay/Stephen Stills)

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
brother, you know you can't run away and hide

is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why
you won't go and say goodbye

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
brother, you know you can't run away and hide

is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why
you won't go and say goodbye

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

brother, you know you can't run away and hide
is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why
you won't go and say goodbye

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
brother, you know you can't run away and hide
is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why
you won't go and say goodbye

brother, you know you can't run away and hide
is it you don't want to see her cries, is that why
you won't go and say, gonna go and say, gonna go and say goodbye
