Goodbye Songtext
von Jeffrey Gaines

You don′t know what you got
You're so caught up in you
All you see is what you stand to lose
Thought you never really had a clue
You don′t know what she feels
You're so afraid of the truth
Just a little boy standing in red size shoes
You know you never really had to pay any dues

One day you wake up and she will be gone
You wonder what in the world went wrong
She gave you eight years of her life
Now all that's through
And all she′s left to give you is goodbye
Is goodbye


She don′t mean you any harm
She endures more than you know
Hope you realize what a gift she brings
Start thinking of ways to give her wings
You don't know what she needs
You don′t hear a word she says
She's got hopes in her heart that are hers alone
Happily playing a part of something she′s outgrown

One day you wake up and she will be gone
You wonder what in the world went wrong
She gave you eight years of her life
Now all that's through
And all she′s left to give you is goodbye
Is goodbye

You may tell yourself she won't be gone long
But if you were me you'd see you had it coming
And you may even tell yourself that you′ve been dead wrong
But if you were me you′d see she's done nothing

One day you wake up and she will be gone
You wonder what in the world went wrong
She gave you best years of her life
And all that′s through
And all she's left to give you is goodbye

You don′t know what you got
