GOODBYE (The Song)

 

Nobody wants to say goodbye

Because nobody wants to cry

And so, you go on living

Or are you pretending

Nobody asks you, why?

How a true love could ever die

You just go on denying

For you just want to go on believing

Day after day

 

(Brief instrumental interlude)

 

And you have to pass the time of day

Hiding all those silent fears away

You hold on to

As you want to, all you hope to

 

(Brief instrumental interlude)

 

Holding on for just another day

And hoping that you will not stray

 

(Brief instrumental interlude)

 

Holding on to all of those good things

Trying to ignore those wild mood swings

Every day now, every day now, every day now

 

(brief instrumental interlude)

 

And it’s always just the same again,

Again, again

You know, you know now

It’s over, It’s all over

And on that final day

When there is no more for you to say

The bags are packed

And the taxi is waiting in the drive

 

So, this is to be goodbye

Though no one was meant to cry

How do you hold it all in?

When the whole of your heart is breaking

Silently breaking

 

How will your heart let go?

Of someone who loved you so

Not knowing where to begin

Repairing the hurt deep within

And how does a new life begin?

After you’ve lost everything

 

The lonely nights pass on by

Since that last goodbye

The house is an empty shell

Where only painful memories dwell

All because we said goodbye

And not farewell.
