Kissing You Goodbye Lyrics

It happened so fast

Before I could blink, what's next

Was all I could think, and you

Looked like you were falling in love

I got up to go

I hugged you goodbye, but no

The mistake was mine

'Cause twenty minutes later in soft lamplight

I was kissing you goodbye

And the storybooks say it don't happen that way

'Cause you're s'posed to know 'fore they let you go

But sometimes

A kiss is all you get

And now, I sleep through the night alone

With no one by my side, I know

It's better this way

But I still can't come to terms

'Cause that night, you begged me to stay

I was shy, and I ran away

'Cause I didn't realize

I was kissing you goodbye

And I smoke not to hear your voice in my ear

I drink just to keep you out of my sleep

I try and I try and I try my best to forget

But I memorized your smile, and the way

You held me while your lips

Whispered pretty lies

And I was kissing you goodbye

But I memorized your smile, and the way

You held me while your lips

Whispered pretty lies

And I was kissing you goodbye

While your lips

Whispered pretty lies

And I was kissing you goodbye

As I was kissing you goodbye

Yeah I was Kissing you goodbye
