I Never Said Goodbye

I was just ten years old
I didn't even know what it meant to go
But when you had a light shining in your eyes
Oh I never said goodbye

The day that I left my home
I guess I was too scared of letting you know
The things I never told you stuck in my mind
Oh I never said goodbye

Wait too long
Before the words come rolling off my tongue
They say who you are
And what you mean to me
Or do I start where we could be if you could see my heart?

Pretend like there's nothing wrong
I'll see you tomorrow
But we both know
The minute that we part's when you start to cry
Oh I never said goodbye

We've never been too close
I'm sorry, but I love you
I guess you know
But now so far apart, I can finally try
'Cause I never said goodbye

Wait too long
Before the words come rolling off my tongue
They say who you are
And what you mean to me
Or do I start where we could be if you could see my heart?

Warnings circling my head
Don't make those mistakes again
But I'm not gonna lie
There's something inside
It feels different this time
Oh you know when it's right
Don't really know why
But I won't say goodbye

Wait too long
Before the words come rolling off my tongue
They say who you are
And what you mean to me
Where do I start?
'Cause honestly, I know you see my heart

You're there when I close my eyes
You've always been the one standing by my side
The one thing that I'm proud of in my whole life
Is that I never said goodbye
