I know I promised-
With a whisper and kiss I would always be here,
And I know I meant it-
I would hold your pain and dry your tears,
I know I said it-
But the answers just aren't as clear.

I think I knew it-
Tables turn and catch you with change,
And I think it was obvious-
We weren‘t what we should‘ve became,
I think it’s time-
Because nothing will ever be the same.

It was stupid of me-
Fairytale dreams laced with wings have broken,
And it was expected of me-
To fall when I tried to fly on the words I‘ve spoken,
It’s only good for me-
If I close the door I’ve opened.

I didn‘t see-
The fool falls and tries to stand by praying,
And I didn‘t want to hurt-
Everything has a price and it leaves you paying,
I didn‘t see-
That leaving was harder than staying.

I know I promised-
But promises have a way of becoming lies,
And I think I knew it-
The first time I looked in your eyes,
It was stupid of me-

But I guess I’ve always known-
I would say goodbye.
