I know that I just got out of the shower But my eyes aren't wet from the water And I would just like to tell you the difference between "Bye!" and saying goodbye The former would be used at the end of a long day When the sight of you at another point in my life Is not just a possibility, but something that is assured I know when I go to sleep that I don't have to worry about Telling you everything that I needed you to hear Because I know there will be more time But saying goodbye are the words I use When I am unsure of the next time I will see you And goodbye are the words I will use when I want you to know that even though our time is up I will never forget you, and every day I will wake With your image in my brain and my memories of you Still fresh from dreaming Goodbye means that in the moments that you are gone I will ache and cry for you I will remember you I will be thinking of you when I am lying in bed And wishing that I could remember the last words That I spoke to you And when I say goodbye I know you won't hear me Even though my only wish would be The chance To say goodbye

Goodbye
I know that I just got out of the shower But my eyes aren't wet from the water And I would just like to tell you the difference between "Bye!" and saying goodbye The former would be used at the end of a long day When the sight of you at another point in my life Is not just a possibility, but something that is assured I know when I go to sleep that I don't have to worry about Telling you everything that I needed you to hear Because I know there will be more time But saying goodbye are the words I use When I am unsure of the next time I will see you And goodbye are the words I will use when I want you to know that even though our time is up I will never forget you, and every day I will wake With your image in my brain and my memories of you Still fresh from dreaming Goodbye means that in the moments that you are gone I will ache and cry for you I will remember you I will be thinking of you when I am lying in bed And wishing that I could remember the last words That I spoke to you And when I say goodbye I know you won't hear me Even though my only wish would be The chance To say goodbye
