Lyrics
Your new girl is pretty? much a twin of me
You?ve got me drownin? in an irony while you flirt so freely but
You moved on so fast I didn?t even see
That just behind your smiling face
I was barely a memory
And it boils down to a cruel twist of fate
And it?s way too harsh for my heart to take
And I tell myself that you?re not worth a cry
?Cuz why should I remember you when you didn?t even stop to say
Goodbye
Goodbye
So I avoid these places we didn?t even go, boy
Never thought that I could hate Greek food
I didn?t even know, boy but
I do some weird things when I?m on my own
Man, I may have shared your time
But just like now I was all alone
And it boils down to a cruel twist of fate
And it?s way too harsh for my heart to take
And I tell myself that you?re not worth a cry
?Cuz why should I remember you when you didn?t even stop to say
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Why should I remember you? no?
Goodbye
I said, ?Goodbye.?
Goodbye?
