How To Say Goodbye

How To Say Goodbye - Jon McLaughlin

Don't say a word

Let the silence bend and curve

Around us like a barrier

That holds the hurt at bay

Time stands still

It keeps us both against our will

With gritted teeth and mouths that fill

With words we cannot say

So hold me closely

Tell me that we're gonna be fine

I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

God knows why or how but

We are running out of time

And I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

Part of me

Forevermore will always be

Quietly remembering

You underneath my breath

So hold me closely

Tell me that we're gonna be fine

I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

God knows why or how but

We are running out of time

I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

Oh how much you meant to me

How much better my whole life will always be

I'm sorry but I can't find the words

To tell you how I feel

So hold me closely

Tell me that we're gonna be fine

Oh I don't know how to say goodbye

God knows why or how but

We are running out of time oh my

And I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye

I don't know how to say goodbye
