Here's the lyrics

Mimi:
It's true you sold your guitar and bought a car?
Roger:
It's true - I'm leaving now for Santa Fe It's true you're with this yuppie scum?
Benny:
You said you'd never speak to him again
Mimi:
Not now
Maureen:
Who said you that you have any say in who she says things to at all?
Roger:
Yeah!
Joanne:
Who said that you should stick your knoes in other people's...
Maureen:
Who said I was talking to you?
Joanne:
we used to have this fight each night
Mark:
Calm down
Joanne:
She'd never admit I existed
Mark:
Everyone please
Mimi:
He was the same way - he was always "run away - hit the road don't commit" you're full of s**t
Joanne:
She's in denial
Mimi:
He's in denial
Joanne:
Didn'y give an inch when i gave a mile
Mark:
Come on
Mimi:
I gave a mile
Roger:
Gave a mile to who?
Mark & Benny:
Come on guys chill!
Mimi & Joanne:
I'd be happy to die for a taste of what Angel had someone to live for-unafraid to say i love you
Roger:
All your words are nice Mimi but loves not a three way street you'll never share real love until you love your self-I should
no
Collins:
You all said you'd be cool today so please for my sake...
I cant believe he's gone
I cant believe your going
I can't believe this family must die
Angel helped us believe in love I can't believe you disagree
All:
I cant believe this is good bye
Mark:
I hear there are great resturants out west
Roger:
Some of the best, how could she?
Mark:
How could you let her go?
Roger:
You just don't know...how could me lose Angel?
Mark:
Maybe you'll see why when you stop escaping your pain at least now if you try Angel's death wont be in vain
Roger:
His death is in vain
Mark:
Are you insane? There's so much to care about there's me there's Mimi-
Roger:
Mimi's got her baggage too
Mark:
So do you
Roger:
Who are you to tell me what I know. What to do
Mark:
A firend
Roger:
But who Mark are you? "Mark has got his work" they say "Mark lives for his work" and "Mark's in love with his work" Mark
hides in his work
Mark:
From what?
Roger:
From facing your failure, facing your loneliness facing tha fact you live a lie
yes, you live a lie tell you why
you're always preaching not to be numb when that's how you thrive
you pretened to create and observe
when you really detache from feeling alive
Mark:
Perhaps because I'm the one of us to survive
Roger:
Poor baby
Mark:
Mimi still loves Roger
Is Roger really jealous or afraid that MImi's weak
Roger:
Mimi did look pale
Mark:
Mimi's gotten thin
Mimi's running out of time
Roger's running out the door--
Roger: No more! Oh no! I've gotta go
Mark:
Hey for someone who's always been let down who's heading out of town?
Roger:
For someone who long's for a community of his own, who's with his camera, alone?
i'll call i hate the fall
you heard?
Mimi:
Every word
you don't want baggage without lifetime guarantees
You don't want to watch me die?
I just came to say
goodbye love goodbye love
came to say goodbye love, goodbye
just came to say
Roger: Glory
Mimi:
goodbye love
Roger:
One blaze of
Mimi:
goodbye love
Roger:
glory
Mimi:
goodbye love goodbye
Roger: have to find
Mimi:
please don't touch me understand I'm scared i need to go away
Mark:
I know a place, a clinic
Benny:
A rehab?
Mimi:
Maybe could you?
Benny:
I'll pay
Mimi:
goodbye love
goodbye love
came to say goodbye love goodbye
just came to say goodbye love
goodbye love goodbye love goodbye love
hello disease

This song is so mad and I'm so mad they took it out of the movie. It's in the deleted scene's though

I hated how Roger got so mad at Mark. It made me feel so bad for Mark, even though Roger looked really sexy in this part

I LOVE that song and I think it should have been in the movie, not just the deleted scenes. It makes things more clear about what happened to Mimi and her going into rehab and disapearing and stuff

I can totally hear Adam and Anthony's voices in my head with that

Their voices mix so well together

And great chemistry

I love that song ^^

And I like how Mimi sounds in it, too

And it's a lot more deep than the rest of Rent

It gives you a real insight into Mark's character

And I like the acting in it

You can just tell by teir voices how they're feeling

mnerg. i mourn for the loss of half of this song in the film.

(but thank sondheim for deleted scenes, eh?)

the second half of it is SO important for mark ("mark has got his work..." hello character development!), mimi ("goodbye love, hello disease"), and benny (offering to pay for mimi's rehab...shows that he's still a good person despite marrying into yuppie scum).

without this half of goodbye love, what you own looks so random and out of place and i'm tempted to say stupid. you have to understand mark and roger's relationship to get that song, in my opinion. and without their fight....you don't.

also, for all you roger/mark fans, at the end of the new york theatre workshop version they tell each other "i love you". awww. heart

I love that song. I think it should have been kept in the movie.
On DVD, there should be an option where you're able to watch the unedited version of the movie.

This song made me cry so much! especially in the movie. but Daphne's voice in the OBC was sadder. so i think i drowned myself in tears in equal amounts for both. no matter how many times i watch the movie, this song ALWAYS makes me cry gonk crying

I love that song! I listen to it in math and I have it on my MP3 player. One time I finished a test early, so I wrote all the lyrics on the scrap paper he gave us. It was so awesome!

I love this song! It's so beautiful and it actual helps you understand more of the movie if you haven't seen the boardway play. It develops more of the plot, lets us know more about Mark and shows us Mark and Roger relationship!

How can you cut out ANYTHING that has to do with Mark and Roger's relationship?!?!?! gonk

Chris Columbus's excuse was that it was "too emotional" and that the audience would just stop reacting. it worked in the play because you had intermission to digest.

(which is total bs because all the "emotional" stuff is in the second act. psh.)

I love this song! When I do kareoke I sing this song because I can sing well to Mimi's part. I wish they would of put it in the movie because it does explain a whole lot.

I love that song, well I love all of the songs but that one I'm going to play over and over again when my bf breaks up with me, even though that might be in like two years or more

What was really sad is that I saw the movie, and about a month later, I heard the actaul song (the full version) for the first time, and I was talking to my friend about my ex (who i still absolutly love), and I heard the "just came to say goodbye love, goodbye love... glory, one blaze of glory." which was exactly what happend. I tried to say goodbye to him at the end of the summer camp thing, but he would have none of it. He said he would just dissapear without saying goodbye so that no one cried at goodbyes. So I heard that, and right when it felt 'natural' i was about to say to sing to myself to the same tune, "but hello..." i remeber that I was going to say something, but I cant remeber what. It was really creepy because Mimi sort of sang along with me "hello... disease" that scared the s**t out of me. I was sobbing by the end, because of the combination of the music reading my mind and everything else...

i know i sound pathetic and angst-teeny but thats the truth and my story behind the song.
