Album: Nothing Gold Can Stay (1999)

The Goodbye Song

last year was one of our better years in a life full of separation
it's ok to second guess just as long as you remember she's gone..
in the bright of day it might seem like the stars are gone they never leave,
they come back when the sun moves on it's over now you watched me
as i turned around it's not why, but how the light is on i'll come home
now i feel it's been such a long time since her eyes have met with mine
i feel it's been such a long time i'm glad you've made up your mind
it's hurting me from the inside
if i only had something to say maybe
if i prove that i'm right will it still be safe to stay?
