"Say Goodbye" lyrics

The moment came and went, my darlin'
We're still here while the thunder's storming
Didn't work, Lord knows we tried

I'm looking in your eyes with memories flashing
How did we fly so high and end up crashing?
Hanging on where love and truth collide

Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Why does it seem so wrong not to hold you tight
When the tears start falling down?
Don't wanna break your heart
Don't wanna wreck your world
Don't wanna make you cry
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?

We keep coming back instead of running
Hide behind the mask of what we're wanting
I wish you hated me somehow

I start to leave, I start to miss you
Then the feeling leads to wanna kiss you
I can't live with or without

Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Why does it seem so wrong not to hold you tight
When the tears start falling down?
Don't wanna break your heart
Don't wanna wreck your world
Don't wanna make you cry
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?

I think that I know why
I think that you know why
I think we both know why

Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Why does it seem so wrong not to hold you tight?
Why does it take so long to say
Why does it take so long to say
Why does it take so long to say
Goodbye
(Goodbye)
Goodbye
(Goodbye)
Goodbye
(Goodbye)
