When you say goodbye

When you say goodbye
You're leaving everything you knew
And everything that was
Because that's saying "we're through"

After you say goodbye
Everything will change
You'll start to miss what you had
While things start to rearrange

When you say goodbye
You break somebody's heart
Because they thought you would be with them
Till the end, not just the start

After you say goodbye
You want back badly what was
You wish to go back in time
And you want it because...

When you say goodbye
You thought you wanted to move ahead
But then when you got there
All you found was dread

After you say goodbye
You realize you made a mistake
But it's one you can't take back
What happened won't erase for your sake

When you say goodbye
It's the worst thing you'll ever do
You didn't really want to say it
And inside I think you knew...
