How Do I Say Goodbye

Early morning
There's a message on my phone
It's my mother saying
Darling, please come home

I fear the worst
But how could you leave us all behind
There's so much to say
But there's so little time

So how do I say goodbye
To someone who's been with me
For my whole damn life
You gave me my name
And the colour of your eyes
I see your face when I look at mine
So how do I, how do I
How do I say goodbye

When I couldn't
You always saw the best in me
Right or wrong
You were always on my side
But I'm scared
Of what life without you's like
And I saw the way
She looked into your eyes

And I promise if you go
I will make sure she's alright

So how do I say goodbye
To someone who's been with me
For my whole damn life
You gave me my name
And the colour of your eyes
I see your face when I look at mine
So how do I, how do I
How do I say goodbye

And there's no way you could ever let me down
Gonna steal some time and start again
You'll always be my closest friend
And someday we are gonna make it out
Just hold the light
Just hold the light

So how do I say goodbye
To someone who's been with me
For my whole damn life
You gave me my name
And the colour of your eyes
I see your face when I look at mine
So how do I, how do I
How do I say goodbye
So how do I, how do I
How do I say goodbye
