Why'd You Say Goodbye?

I see it in you're eyes

 hear it in your voice

We all should know it's plain to see

You're leaving

"It's complicated," you say

"It's better off this way."

But when we look into your face

That's no reason

Why can't you just tell me?

Is it really that hard to say?

How can we still be friends with you

If we're turning you away?

(Chorus) Why can't you say your reasons?

Why'd you say goodbye?

I thought that we were friends

Together 'til the end I thought we'd stay this way

Forever It's best if we move on

But what happens when we're gone?

I guess by now it's time,

But what I need to know is why.

Why'd you say goodbye?

(Verse 2) Without a backward glance (well maybe one)

Didn't even give us a chance

To sort it out and understand

Just what to do

You can't see the pain inside (not at all)

Told me not the blame myself

Yet since we've all just left and gone

It don't change a thing

The time has come for leaving

You said you're tired of waiting

What were you hoping for

When you walked out that door?

(Chorus)

That one that should have left

Was me, not you (what'd you say?)

It's too late for that now

Everyone's gone, including you (that's true)

Now that I'm all alone

Inside I mean, not out

Who do I turn to?

Who cares anyway?

No one. No one!

(Chorus)

I guess by now it's time,

But what I need to know is why.

Why'd you say goodbye?
