Fed up with my destiny

And this place of no return

Think I'll take another day

And slowly watch it burn

It doesn't really matter how the time goes by

'Cause I still remember you and

And that beautiful goodbye



We staggered through those empty streets

Laughing arm in arm

The night had made a mess of me

Your confession kept me warm

And 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'll keep mine to myself

And all the things we never said

I can say for someone else

'Cause nothing lasts forever, but we always try

And I just can't help but wonder why

We let it pass us by



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
