Ever since that first night

When I gave my love to you

Everything seemed so right

You are my sunlight shining through

And I tried so not to let it show

Yet it seems sad because I know

No matter how hard I try

No matter how hard I try

There's always goodbye

You smile softly as you leave my bed

And I tightly hold your hand

You lean down to kiss my head

But there's nothing to be said

And if you said you want to sing

I know you'd soon be on your way

No matter how hard we try

No matter how hard we try

There's always goodbye

So here we stand, you and I

You are too kind and I'm too shy

To say what we really mean

So we make life a masquerade

Never showing all, only the parts we played

No matter how hard we try

No matter how hard we try

There's always goodbye

No matter how hard I try

No matter how hard I try

There's always goodbye

There's always goodbye
