There's a letter on the table
I've never seen it there before
I don't have to read it
'Cause I already know

It's been a long time coming
And I've been awake for days
I know we can make it
But things have to change

Your words say it's hopeless
But I know there's more between the lines

Goodbye
is this how you want it
I'll leave but I don't want to go
And I'll wait but I can't wait forever
For you to say goodbye

Well maybe I'm just dreaming
But I know dreams come true
And I'm still here believing
That God made me for you

If we could just start over
Get back where we began
We're better off together
It doesn't have to end

Goodbye
is this how you want it
I'll leave but I don't want to go
And I'll wait but I can't wait forever
For you to say goodbye

Goodbye
is this how you want it
I'll leave but I don't want to go
And I'll wait but I can't wait forever
For you to say goodbye
(Oh, goodbye)
