All I ever knew was love, love, love, love
It never quite looks the way you thought it would
Sometimes love looks like holding on tight
Other times love is letting go
This time love is letting go
So I'll say

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Is all that I will say, on my way
Someday, someday, someday
You will understand why I had to go
If I leave, it would be the best thing for you
If I stay, you would never see
And I would never see
Better days, yeah
Better days, yeah
Better days

There is a war that's going on
Between my weary heart and my heart in hand
The grace is lifted and the cloud keeps moving
I guess I'd better keep moving on
I wish I was better at moving on
So I'll say

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Is all that I will say, on my way
Someday, someday, someday
You will understand why I had to go
If I leave, it would be the best thing for you
If I stay, you would never see
And I would never see
Better days
Better days, no, no, no

You would never see, you would never see
Better days

Some say see you later, but goodbye is more appropriate
I wished you knew that you're not the only one hurtin in this situation
I wished you could own that
You took it personal when I told you that things were changin
Then things took a fall, it's like
Being mad at the trees when they drop leaves
It's a Pennsylvania fall

But at the root of it all, you can't control people
Seasons change without you
And they don't ever really need your permission
God's been good a long time
Aat the root of it all, you can't control people
Seasons change without you
And they don't ever really need your permission
God's been good a long time
God's been good a long time

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Is all that I will say, on my way
Someday, someday, someday
You will understand why I had to go
If I leave, it would be the best thing for you
If I stay, you would never see
And I would never see
Better days, yeah
Better days, yeah
Better days

I wish I was better at saying goodbye
It never gets easy no matter how hard I try
I wish you were better at saying goodbye
It never get easy no matter how you try

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Is all that I will say, on my way
Someday, someday, someday
You will understand why I had to go
If I leave, it would be the best thing for you
If I stay, you would never see
And I would never see
Better days, yeah
Better days, yeah
Better days
