no more goodbyes

finally the day had come
and you gave the final word

the constant goodbyes ended
with the only goodbye that mattered...

yours.

constant goodbyes

i sort of knew this time would come
and i believe you have too

you have constantly hinted it
and everytime it cut me

constantly i have prepared myself
but still here i am
and here you are

each one going
and each one being left behind
always there are constant goodbyes

eventually maybe the hurting would stop
eventually maybe the numbing would begin

and we could stop saying goodbye
once and for all
we could stop saying constant goodbyes
once and for all
live the minute after our goodbyes have been said

devoid of each other
devoid of each other's touch
devoid of each other's words
devoid of each other's constant goodbyes

i sort of knew one of us would have to end it
and i believe you have too

i didn't want it to be me bec i would hurt you
and i didn't want it to be you bec you would hurt me
but either way we would both get hurt
and i guess that is just the way it has to be

we have to stop saying goodbye
once and for all
we should stop saying our constant goodbyes
and live the minute after those goodbyes have been said
