We were young, thought we were here to stay
Ever strong, and every day we'd play
We were wrong, and through our tears we cry
We just can't say goodbye
Why take you? We talked about our plans
We're not through, we'd fight and take our stands
It's not right, please someone tell me why
Tell me why, I have to say, goodbye
I've got to try, to say goodbye
Oh it's so hard, I never thought we'd be apart
Oh it's so rough, I gotta tell you it's so tough
My faith is strong, you know I'm struggling to hold on
I just can't say goodbye
I miss your voice, I miss your guiding hand
I have no choice, it's hard to understand
I miss your smile, shining like the midday sky
I don't wanna say, goodbye
I wish that we, could get a brand new start
Can't you see, I'm holding you in my heart
Always near, a treasure deep inside
I just can't say, I don't wanna say, goodbye
But I've got to try, to say, say, goodbye, naw, naw
Oh it's so hard, I never thought we'd be apart
Oh it's so rough, I gotta tell you it's so tough
My faith is strong, you know I'm struggling holding on
I'm not gonna say, whoa, I've gotta find another way
Gotta let you go, but my mind keeps saying no
Gotta let you go, and my heart is aching so
Ain't gotta run no more, take your wings you're gonna fly
I guess I'll say, goodbye
