3. GOODBYE
(© 2013 e.a.j. burrows, APRA/AMCOS)

We were young, bulletproof, in a far-away land, so much to see and do
The Christmas snow and Oxford Street lights, you in my arms, we owned the night

We would run and we would hide, we kept it secret our private paradise
And in this love we would sink, no need for words, no need to think

But a shift in your eyes, betrayed a certain lie
And the words on your lips, iced over with a kiss
All the questions in my head, with answers left unsaid, answers left unsaid-

I’m gonna pull myself together
Walk away with head held high
I’ve got my feet on the ground, I’m future bound
So goodbye, goodbye!

You took me somewhere, I’d never been before, you opened up my heart, picked me up off the floor
And then came hope, I dared to dream, but things ain’t always what they seem

‘Cause a look in your eyes, betrayed a certain lie
And the words on your lips, iced over with a kiss
All the questions in my head, with answers left unsaid, answers left unsaid-

I’m gonna pull myself together
Walk away with head held high
I’ve got my feet on the ground, I’m future bound
So goodbye, goodbye!

(Repeat)

And I know things will get better and my heart will rise again
But it’s hard sometimes when I close my eyes and feel the soft touch of your hand… of your hand

I’m gonna pull myself together
Walk away with head held high
I’ve got my feet on the ground, I’m future bound
So goodbye, goodbye!

(Repeat)
