Say Goodbye
Music and lyrics by John L. Cooper.

©2006 Photon Music (BMI). All Rights Reserved.

 

Things are changing
It seems strange and
I need to figure this out
You’ve got your life
I got mine
But you’re all I cared about
Yesterday we were laughing
Today I’m left here asking
Where has all the time gone now
I’m left alone somehow
Growing up and getting older
I don’t want to believe it’s over

Chorus:
Don’t say goodbye
'Cause I don’t wanna hear those words tonight
'Cause maybe it’s not the end for you and I
And although we knew
This time would come for me and you
Don’t say anything tonight
If you’re gonna say goodbye

Do you remember
In December
How we swore we’d never change
Even though you’re leaving 
Our feelings
Would always stay the same
I wish we could be laughing
Instead I’m standing here asking
Do we have to end this now?
Can we make it last somehow?
We both know what we’ve gotta say, not today
'Cause I don’t wanna leave this way

Bridge:
And if it’s over
It hurts but I’m giving you my word
I hope that you’re always
Happy like we were
Happy like we were

Yesterday we were laughing (if you're gonna say goodbye)
Today i'm left here asking (if you're gonna say goodbye)
And although we knew this time would come for me and you
Don't say anything tonight
If you're gonna say goodbye
