A Broken Goodbye


Two broken people
Makes more brokenness, right
Least, that's what I thought
Before you came in my life
But as swiftly as you came
You faded away

Two broken people
Just trying to get it right
You and me together thought
We'd always be alright
Never thought I'd see the day
You walked away

I know this is for the best
But I wish it didn't have to be
Such a mess
Can we pick up pieces of
Broken hearts?


Should I sing
Or should I cry
Hold on tight
Or say goodbye
How can we walk away right now
Was it me
Or was it you
We just made sense
Us two
How can I let my feelings die
How can I say goodbye


Two broken people
Sitting by a riverside
Holding hands and hearts
Oh so tight
Though the river remains
Love washed away

Two broken people
Passing love notes in class
Never caught, and never had
We can't admit that we were bad
But the ink faded away
Just like you

Oh, two broken people
Staying up all night
Typing away
In the moonlight
But the messages went dead
And my heart

I know this is for the best
But I wish it didn't have to be
Such a mess
Can we pick up pieces of
Broken hearts?
I've a broken heart


Should I sing
Or should I cry
Hold on tight
Or say goodbye
How can we walk away right now
Was it me
Or was it you
We just made sense
Us two
How can I let my feelings die
How can I say goodbye

I love you know
I loved you then
But you moved on
Moved on to him
I hope you're happy
Pray it too
But the only one
I want is you

Someday maybe
We'll run together again
Or maybe I'll find
Another girl for me
But you take care
And please don't forget
Your friend from
All these years

Should I sing
Or should I cry
Hold on tight
Or say goodbye
How can we walk away right now
Was it me
Or was it you
We just made sense
Us two
How can I let my feelings die
I wish you
The best of luck
I hope he's all
You ever want
I just want to let you know
Here you'll
Always have a home
And I sure hope
You know
You'll always have a place in my heart

So, here's goodbye.

You can probably guess already, but this song was written when my love and I grew apart and were no longer together.
