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 anew,
And be a friend.
Well I've got something - I've wanted to tell you,
And it's the last thing I thought I could say,
But I think I must go there - anyway.

Goodby.
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'd give the world just to hear you say,
A simple whisper of a word or two,
Like "I love you".
It breaks my heart to see it end this way.

Goodby.
How do you say - goodbye?
Do I just look you in the eye,
Shake your hand,
Wish you well?
After all this time,   (All this time),
I never wanted for goodbye.

Can't 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.

Goodby.
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.

Darlin',
I was hoping that we - could pretend.

Goodbye.
