beautiful goodbye

i'm fed up with my destiny

and this place of no return

i think i'll take another day

and slowly watch it burn

and it doesn't really matter

how the time goes by

'cause i still remember you and i

and that beautiful goodbye

we staggered through these empty streets

laughing arm in arm

the night had made a mess of me

your confessions kept me warm

i don't really miss you

i just need to know

do you ever think of you and i

and that beautiful goodbye

when i see you now

i wonder how

i could've watched you walk away

if i let you down

please forgive me now

for that beautiful goodbye

in these days of no regrets

i keep mine to myself

and all the things we never said

i can save for someone else

and nothing lasts forever

but we always try

and i just can't help but wonder why

we let it pass us by

yeah

when i see you now

i wonder how

i could've watched you walk away

if i let you down

please forgive me now

for that beautiful goodbye

baby

what can i do

oh

to get through to you

and sometimes i cry

yeah

it's a fool's lullaby

sometimes i cry

it's just a fool's lullaby

i'm dying inside
