Lyrics:

Goodbye, I don't wanna feel the need to hear your voice

Goodbye, I don't wanna feel the need to see your face

I can't live with all these things I would say

I can't live with all these things that I'd say

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

You never really knew me, never ever

Never ever saw me, saw me like they did

You never really loved me, never really

Never really loved me, loved me like they did

With some time, I might wanna see the way that you've changed

With some time, I might wanna see how you fared, what you can't replace

I can't stand it all these things I've let go

I can't stand it all these things I've let go

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

You never really knew me, never ever

Never ever saw me, saw me like they did

You never really loved me, never really

Never really loved me, loved me like they did

You could of told me goodbye

You could of told me goodbye

You let me try knowing there was nothing I could do to change you

You could of warned me, knowing there was nothing I could do to change you

You never really knew me, never ever

Never ever saw me, saw me like they did

You never really loved me, never really

Never really loved me, loved me like they did

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Like the first time

You never really knew me, never ever

Never ever saw me, saw me like they did

You never really loved me, never really

Never really loved me, loved me like they did
