Goodbye
Just about a year ago
Maybe it was a day ago
I don’t know
But somewhere in between
You said goodbye
But that's a lie
Because it was never really good
Funny thing is
There’s something about the closure
That makes me feel a little closer
To you, who knew
But Maybe we should have tried
To have made it a real goodbye
But now it’s over
And now we're closer
Than we’ve ever been
It just took the end
To figure us out
To get to starting over
Stopping to get started
Like a wind-up toy
Waiting to be played with
But Its all a ploy
Because being played with
Is all I ever get
I am done with it
Set your clock to midnight
Then watch it stop
On a year ago
Maybe a day ago
Somewhere in between
I don’t know
We said goodbye
Maybe it was a day ago
I don’t know
But somewhere in between
You said goodbye
But that's a lie
Because it was never really good
Funny thing is
There’s something about the closure
That makes me feel a little closer
To you, who knew
But Maybe we should have tried
To have made it a real goodbye
But now it’s over
And now we're closer
Than we’ve ever been
It just took the end
To figure us out
To get to starting over
Stopping to get started
Like a wind-up toy
Waiting to be played with
But Its all a ploy
Because being played with
Is all I ever get
I am done with it
Set your clock to midnight
Then watch it stop
On a year ago
Maybe a day ago
Somewhere in between
I don’t know
We said goodbye
