Lyrics
SAY GOODBYE
Words and Music by Charlie McCormick and Ric Cabot Podmore
I'm lost inside my weary mind,
Heaven knows I've been so blind;
It's up to you to make your move,
Love so cold, trapped inside the truth;
I don't want to hurt you, babe,
I don't want to say goodbye;
I don't want to lose your love,
I don't know why I got to say goodbye;
Burnin' inside of me,
Tangled lies, alibis;
Still it seems our love was dream,
This pain is real, don't you know how I feel?
I don't want to hurt you, babe,
I don't want to say goodbye;
I don't want to lose your love,
I don't know why I got to say goodbye;
Just once in my life
I've wanted to say goodbye;
I never stood a chance with you, girl
And now I'll never know why...
Every night I miss the way we used to touch (when you touched me),
Every time I lie awake alone, girl, I want you so much;
Why'd you come, come back this way? (why can't you see?),
Every time I fall in love, I'm running from yesterday;
I don't want to hurt you, babe,
I don't want to say goodbye;
I don't want to lose your love,
I don't know why I got to say goodbye;
