goodbyes

could be should be would be
if i hadn't choosen before
could be should be would be
maybe one day, when we're not you and me anymore

saying goodbye is hard
when you know for sure you won't talk
ever again in your lives
promises made mean nothing
because it's not meant to be
and it's so easy to see
that you and me
don't believe our words
but we say them and let them disperse
in the air around us
look at them
floating meaningless sounds



so
stand proud
and lie
i will do it with you
i will say goodbye
see you again

could be should be would be
if you weren't you
if i wasn't me
could be should be would be
if i hadn't choosen him before
could be should be would be
if the stars aligned for us
could be should be would be
if we had more luck

but we're us
here and now
and i just don't see how
i could do anything
without losing everything
so i'm saying, goodbye, see you soon
and you reply, goodbye, i will miss you so
and we laugh
like it's a joke

could be should be would be
if i hadn't choosen before
could be should be would be
maybe one day, when you're not you
and i'm not me
anymore.
