Say Goodbye

Matt Simons - 2016 / From 'Catch & Release '

 

Stay up lately while she’s sleeping by my side

Still heartbroken by the way that lovers lie

I used to need her now it’s hard to recall why

I think it’s time to say goodbye

 

How many days she did not call and did not write

All we’ve been through I never treated her unkind

Could not be bothered as she watched me lose my mind

She can take her precious time

 

But I still believe in love

Visions of a girl that I’ve been dreaming of

I can’t remember when exactly time was on my side

I think it’s time to say goodbye

 

It can be said that I’m naive and lack foresight

A firm believer in strong will and appetite

How many years now since they gave up that good fight

They had bark but could not bite

 

But I still believe in truth

Words that once they’re heard do not require proof

I still remember when it was that words were on my side

I think it’s time to say goodbye

 

How many parties and rooftop lonely nights

How many girls, how many fancy evening flights

Do I lay down before I get you off my sights

It’s been hard to feel alright

 

But I still believe in love

Visions of a life that I’ve been dreaming of

I can’t remember when exactly time was on my side

But I can finally say goodbye

 

Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo

I can finally say goodbye
