Say Goodbye Lyrics

i remember when i used to say i'd never have to say good-bye.
but now these words have turned again my way,
and i alone i hear myself cry.
i always knew i'd look back on the bad times and laugh, oh i would laugh.
but i never thought i'd look back on the good times and cry.
don't make me say good-bye.

and i've lost all the innocence left in me, memories they only make me cry.
they're so different from the now and here.
between this contrast i lie, i die.
my life may be short, my experiences few,
but i've lived long enough to know i'll never have these moments more than once.
that's why it's so hard to go.

it's my life and i'll do what i please.
don't anyone take that away from me.
don't take me out of my dream world.
don't make me something i can't be.
my home is the place where i'm free.
the place where i'm not afraid to just be.
don't make me leave while i'm at my peak.
don't make me see something i can't see.
it's my life and i'll do what i please.

and the stream of my emotion runs so deep, flowing as it brings unity.
piling into pools of deep sadness, flowing away with the best of me.
and i am tripping over thoughts and i am rolling through my tears.
i'm full of feelings i can't let show, but hindered as i am
i know that i must let go
don't make me go.

i remember when i used to say i'd never have to say good-bye.
but now these words have turned again my way,
and i alone i hear myself cry.
i always knew i'd look back on the bad times and laugh, oh i would laugh.
but i never thought i'd look back on the good times and cry.
don't make me say good-bye.

it's my life and i'll do what i please.
don't anyone take that away from me.
don't take me out of my dream world.
don't make me something i can't be.
my home is the place where i'm free.
the place where i'm not afraid to just be.
don't make me leave while i'm at my peak.
don't make me see something i can't see.
it's my life and i'll do what i please.
