While I savor our last kiss,
I wonder how it came to this
As I say goodbye to you.


Who is right and who is wrong?
Or did we just press our luck too long?
It could be you. It could be me.
Maybe we just weren’t meant to be.
I wish I knew
As I say goodbye to you.


I can feel the tears building inside
And see the questions in your eyes
But there is nothing I can do
As I say goodbye to you.


Because we have been here before,
Someone ready to walk out this door.
We’ve both begged, made our pleas,
Have screamed, and fallen on our knees.
We’ve made up and try to forgive
But this is just no way to live.
Now we’re just through
As I say goodbye to you.


We have tried in so many ways
To make this work every day
But it’s just no use
As I say goodbye to you.


So I reluctantly I pull away.
God, how I’ve dreaded this day!
But this is something I must do
As I say goodbye to you.


I try to ignore your “Please”
And the quivering in my knees
As I walk out the door,
Wanting to fall through the floor.
I do love you
But I must say goodbye to you.


Maybe someday you’ll see I’m right
But I know it won’t be tonight
Now that I’ve said goodbye to you.
