"You Don't Have to Say Goodbye" lyrics

I was on the high line, but you didn't notice
Staring at the west side, fall into the ocean
Anyway, I've been close to getting off the island
I think I'm gonna try it one day like this

I'ma jump into the water and free my soul
Yell a little louder, and take control, yeah
You read the signs, but I write them
I know your eyes, and I like them
It's alright, you can say goodnight
But we don't have to say goodbye
We don't have to say goodbye

Even when the waves came crashing in the buildings
Even when the golden bells stopped all the singing
I could never leave this, I never had a reason
This is where my place is now, I can feel it

I'ma jump into the water and free my soul
Get a little louder, and take control, yeah
You read the signs, but I write them
I know your eyes, and I like them
It's alright, you can say goodnight
But we don't have to say goodbye
No, we don't have to say goodbye

Take me to a place you know
Take me to a place you love
And the leaves'll change, put their colors on
And we'll go home and pull the covers on
And we'll say goodnight
But we don't have to say goodbye
No, we don't have to say goodbye

We don't have to say goodbye
We don't have to say goodbye
No, we don't have to say goodbye
