goodbye lover Lyrics

We were driving back from the cabin, drove into some two story town

There were fairgrounds set up for the evening with people from miles around

And we snuck in when the guards weren't looking and played

We ate junk and took photos and lost all the games

We were a ferris wheel round and around

With beautiful views you can't get from the ground

But beautiful things always come to an end

Goodbye lover

Goodbye old friend

We watched a thousand hours of TV and too many comedy shows

We told a thousand terrible jokes and borrowed each other's best clothes

Dead of the night you'd start shaking unable trying to breath

Working through trauma that I wasn't ready to see

We were a midnight panic attack

Where a beautiful pain lays you flat on your back

But beautiful pains always come to an end

Goodbye lover

Goodbye old friend

I don't accept

The phone's going to ring

Somehow we're going to go back

To sleeping in your bed

Bodies entangled

While I'm listening for your breath

Then came the night where I knelt just to cry in a corner, my palms on the floor

Then came the nights where we tried to sleep with the ghosts of who we were before

And some part of me wants to love you until I am gone

And some part of me is just tired and wants to move on

Soon we'll be figments, and pictures we took

The voicemails you left me, the unreturned books

And even the missing you will fade in the end

Goodbye lover

Goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) lover

Goodbye old friend
