It's been a string of goodbyes A lifetime of leaving You're gonna make me lonesome when you go We're not quite out of time, but I can't help the feeling You're gonna make me lonesome when you go It dawned on me this morning that you may not be mine forever As I watched you running toward me with that smile on your face It's never been so easy, to throw my heart at something And it's never been so hard to let go But don't wait for me, you better just go on without me Bye bye love, these are not tears in my eyes they're just memories you gave to me But I'll be fine, I guess I'm no good at goodbyes and this bittersweet conclusion That you'll be okay with or without me, babe. I always knew you'd take that smile to a million different places But I thought I'd be beside you every step along the way And I knew you'd make em love you, and I knew your dreams would come true But I never meant to give you away Don't you wait for me, you'd better just run along without me Bye bye love, these are not tears in my eyes they're just memories you gave to me But I'll be fine, I guess I'm no good at goodbyes and this bittersweet conclusion That I know you'll be okay, I'm watching you walk away I'll think of you everyday, singing bye bye love. You taught this heart to know true love, so you can keep it once you're done Whether I'm down here, or up above, you'll always be my long lost love Bye bye, love Bye bye love, these are not tears in my eyes they're just memories you gave to me But I'll be fine, I guess I'm no good at goodbyes and this bittersweet conclusion It's been a string of goodbyes A lifetime of leaving
