Lyn Lapid - I Guess That Was Goodbye Lyrics

Lyn Lapid Lyrics

"I Guess That Was Goodbye"

The summer I turned 18
Started with me running from a party
Bella was drinking in the back
My prom night, panic attack

Racing, climbing to the front door
Bolted down 29, going 84
Ended the night on a curb
These last twelve years were a blur

Swear I was just on the pavement
Laying down while someone traces me
Watching the sky
I thought I had more time
What a lie
I guess that was goodbye

I guess that was goodbye
I guess that was goodbye

Wonder if I can outrun September
It's not the end
If I play pretend like when we were kids

Make friends with the dark, say "Stay forever
Don't let me down, down, down"
Night's a fair-weather friend
Lets daylight come in

Swear I was just on the pavement
Laying down while someone traces me
Watching the sky
I thought I had more time
What a lie
I guess that was goodbye

I guess that was goodbye
I guess that was goodbye

But I guess Mr. Clock was just doing his job
And it's nobody's fault, but I wish it was

Swear I was just on the pavement
Laying down while someone traces me
Watching the sky
I thought I had more time
What a lie
I guess that was goodbye

I guess that was goodbye
I guess that was goodbye
I guess that was goodbye
I guess that was goodbye

"We all have that one person who we didn't get enough time with before they left. For me, that person was multiple people: my old high-school friends," Lyn Lapid told about the story behind "I Guess That Was Goodbye" in a press release. "Last August when I was doing writing sessions in LA, my friends were all back home in Maryland saying goodbye to each other before they moved away for college. I never got to say goodbye to them in person because I was away, and when I returned to Maryland, they were all gone. I feel like a lot of people can relate to the bittersweet feeling of an abrupt goodbye."
