I do not know how it started
I know this was not in the plan
How could we ever be honest
It sure doesn't help there's a hand on my back
If I go through this then we're past repair
All of those moments now dyed in my hair
But if I can walk then I'm back to my sins
The ones I pretend don't exist here within
It's goodbye or goodnight or goodbye
Goodnight or goodnight or goodbye
Irony aches every ounce of me
Standing with sand in my toes
Eyes are as wide as the urgency
Wondering what you keep under those clothes
If I take your lips and you follow my lead
Where does that leave us when I have to leave
My time is a problem as shortness of breath
I've never been tempted to this point quite yet
It's goodbye or goodnight or goodbye
Goodbye or goodnight or goodbye
The city's lights, I know what you do
You stay so bright
I never try to run and hide I give myself up every time
Tell me I've made up this fantasy
Your hand never set into mine
Tell me those hearts that I left away
Are real as these instants that I can't decline
I hear all their murmurs from miles away
I feel every glance that's directed my way
I'm older and wiser and losing my stripes
Ten years to slowly make way to this night
It's goodbye or goodnight or goodbye
Goodbye or goodnight or goodbye
I won't start this telling you some petty lie
It's all up to you, it's goodbye or goodnight
