Darlin', I was hoping that we could pretend
And make believe that we could still live happily and start again
Seems like you and I, we've been caught up in your world of lies
I kept believing you could start a new and be a friend
Well I've got something I wanted to tell you and it's the last thing I wanted to say
But I think I must go there anyway...
Chorus
Goodbye how do you say goodbye?
Do I just look you in the eye, shake your hand, wish you well
After all this time... I never wanted for goodbye
Don't let go I was devoted to your heart and soul
And then we took a turn and I had to learn what I tried not to know
Seems like yesterday I give the world just to hear you say
A simple whisper of a word or two, like "I love you"
Breaks my heart to see it end this way
Repeat Chorus
Goodbye can it ever be the same?
Goodbye did we lose more than we gained?
There's nowhere to hide, baby I feel it inside
As my heart cries out your name, goodbye...
And make believe that we could still live happily and start again
Seems like you and I, we've been caught up in your world of lies
I kept believing you could start a new and be a friend
Well I've got something I wanted to tell you and it's the last thing I wanted to say
But I think I must go there anyway...
Chorus
Goodbye how do you say goodbye?
Do I just look you in the eye, shake your hand, wish you well
After all this time... I never wanted for goodbye
Don't let go I was devoted to your heart and soul
And then we took a turn and I had to learn what I tried not to know
Seems like yesterday I give the world just to hear you say
A simple whisper of a word or two, like "I love you"
Breaks my heart to see it end this way
Repeat Chorus
Goodbye can it ever be the same?
Goodbye did we lose more than we gained?
There's nowhere to hide, baby I feel it inside
As my heart cries out your name, goodbye...
