i know that it's just a word

but it's the saddest thing i've ever heard

i just tried to be your friend

now you're walking out on me again

i said, don't cry

you said, goodbye



you still can't get past yourself

to notice anybody else

i can't break into your head

i'd settle for your heart instead

crying in your beer, you've made an artform out of sad

making sure the bottle's the best friend you ever had

but it makes the problems grow,

so if you want to leave so bad, just go



took a chance to start again

and twisted it into an end

making something hard and sad

replace all the respect i had

i said, don't cry

you said, goodbye



so here we are again

my stormy weather friend

got no sun to shine on us

so i guess we'll just pretend that

there's still something here, untill the skies are clear

turn and walk away, there's nothing left to say but



goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

you said, you'd try

i know, you lie

you said, don't cry

i said, goodbye



i know that it's just a word

but it's the saddest thing i've ever heard

oh, oh, oh, oh goodbye, oh, oh, oh, oh goodbye
