Goodbye is a different language
Spoken with regret
Often used, sometimes abused
A word we'll never forget

It's known to **** a thousand dreams
Dreams that wither and die
A permanent scar that goes too far
And leaves us asking why

Goodbye is such an un-natural word
That's filled with fear and dread
It leaves a heart that's ripped apart
Because of the way it's said

It's always the meaning of distance
When one person walks away
The maker of tears that can last for years
As we die a little each day

Goodbye is a different language
Whether a lover or a friend
It's never kind if it's you that find
You're on the receiving end
