Lyrics
I guess all is said and done
I won't try to make you stay
The heartache has just begun
We will go our separate ways
There won't be a second chance
Love has slipped right through our hands
That was our final goodbye
I know I'll think about you
You are never far from mind
There is no doubt about you
Here's what I will leave behind
You'll be a part of my past
There is no reason to cry
Our love wasn't meant to last
That was our final goodbye
Someday I will forget you
Till then I've got memories
I don't want to upset you
I'll be the first one to leave
I will need time by myself
I won't look for someone else
That was our final goodbye
I know I'll think about you
You are never far from mind
There is no doubt about you
Here's what I will leave behind
You'll be a part of my past
There is no reason to cry
Our love wasn't meant to last
That was our final goodbye
