goodbye to you - michelle branch

of all the things i believed in,
i just wanna get it over with.
tears form behind my eyes,
but i do not cry.
counting the days that passed me by

i've been searching deep down in my soul.
words that i'm hearing are starting to get old.
feels like i'm starting all over again.
like the last three years were just pretend.
and i said...

goodbye to you.
goodbye to everything i thought i knew.
you were the one i loved,
the one thing that i tried to hold onto.

i still get lost in your eyes.
and it seems that i can't live a day without you.
closing my eyes and you'll chase my thoughts away,
to a place where i am blinded by the light.
but it's not right.

goodbye to you.
goodbye to everything i thought i knew.
you were the one i loved,
the one thing that i tried to hold onto.

and it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i want what's yours and i want what's mine.
i want you...but i'm not giving in this time!

goodbye to you.
goodbye to everything i thought i knew.
you were the one i loved,
the one thing that i tried to hold onto.

goodbye to you.
goodbye to everything i thought i knew.
you were the one i loved,
the one thing that i tried to hold onto.
the one thing that i tried to hold onto.

and when the stars fall i will lie awake.
you're my shooting star.
