This Is Goodbye

So this is goodbye but for now
I say I'll see you
You thought I would stay
But now you know
That this is goodbye
Maybe I'll see you
You thought I would stay
I gotta go
This is goodbye

Can't say I'm sorry
And I hope I never will be
My heart will stay here
With the ties I left behind me

My future's not here
But I know damn well my past is
My mind is so clear
And I know I won't regret this

Some nights I'll look at the moon and think about you
My mind starts to wonder and maybe you'll think of me too

So this is goodbye but for now
I say I'll see you
You thought I would stay
But now you know
That this is goodbye
Maybe I'll see you
You thought I would stay
I gotta go
This is goodbye
You gave me something
Your life gave meaning to mine
The never ending
What we thought would last a lifetime

Believe in me
And I will believe in you
The best that we'll do
Just know that things will never (be the same)

Maybe in another life, I'd stay here with you
Take comfort in knowing that I will fade in time too

So this is goodbye but for now
I say I'll see you, you thought I would stay
But now you know
That this is goodbye
Maybe I'll see you, you thought I would stay
I gotta go
This is goodbye

I know us parting ways will leave a hole inside of me

Can't say I'm sorry, and I hope I never will be
Won't say I'm sorry, and I know I never will be

So this is goodbye but for now
I say I'll see you, you thought I would stay
But now you know
That this is goodbye
Maybe I'll see you, you thought I would stay
I gotta go
This is goodbye
