The Hardest Thing To Do In Life Is Say Goodbye
today i learned a lesson
that will always be true
saying goodbye to someone
is the hardest thing to do
i've never felt a loss
until i said goodbye
i thought i was strong
and i broke down and cried
never will i forget
the times we had
though the reflections are happy
it makes me rather sad
the most brutal of men
cries at the past
i only wish
the good times would last
so i humor myself
i'd smile if i could
why can't things work out?
because life isn't supposed to be that good

Goodbye
I hate the word goodbye
It makes the angels cry
But I've been hurt too many times
Now the time for fair well is ripe
I hate the word goodbye
It always makes me cry
But you've also made me cry
You've done it so many times
Though there were times when you made me smile
During the happiest days of my life
When I had to hold forever
You were the best and you made me better
But the bonds broke and you let me go
I was in pain and left all alone
Your face still holds that memory
My heart still holds that agony
So it's better we say goodbye
Its better that the angels cry
Its better that you go your way
And its better that I go mine
It hurts me now to see you stay
And you've hurt me so many times
It's a shame what could have been
It's a shame what couldn't be
But the biggest shame this time
Is the very fact that I tried
Some things just can't be understood
In every sense of the word
And when I tried to comprehend you
It proved to be not of any worth
We once said goodbye
But the angels didn't cry
They always knew it was for the better
Although it wouldn't be forever
It felt like it was
So here I say the word I hate
But I'll say it a softer way
It's time we say goodbye
It's time that the angels cry
Better to cry once rather than forever
You would hurt again all over
And keep me crying forever
So the time for goodbye is ripe
And forever I say goodbye
And though the angels might cry
You have hurt me too many times
Better they cry once rather than forever
Goodbye my love, goodbye forever

Where Have All The Good Times Gone!
All my life Ive never stopped to worry 'bout a thing,
Open up and shout it out,an never try to sing,
Wondering if Ive done it wrong,
Will this depression last for long,wont you tell me,
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Once we had an easy ride and always felt the same,
Time was on our side and we had everything to gain,
This could be like yesterday,
Is thst me with your happydays,
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Ma and pa look back on all the things they used to do,
Never had no money and they always told the truth,
Daddy didnt need no little toys,
Mommy didnt need no little boys,wont you tell me,
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Ow!
Yesterday was such an easy game for you to play,
Ah but then lets face it,things are easier today,
Yes you need some bringing down,
Get your feet back on the ground,
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.
Where have all the good times gone.

Learn To Say Goodbye
(hugo montenegro / bradford craig)
When I close my eyes I can see your face
Tho I try I cant believe that you are gone
Theres a part of you thats a part of me
And no matter where I go it comes along
Reminding me of all the good times
And, of course, some of the bad
But then again, some of those hard times
Were the best we ever had
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Learn to say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?
When I needed you, you were always there
You were more than love to me, you were a friend
They say that time is all that matters
And to live it while it lasts
But I cant stop from reminiscing
Or stop living in the past
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Learn to say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?

Dont Say Goodbye
(stock/aitken/waterman)
Dont say goodbye, girl (goodbye, girl)
Dont make me cry, girl (cry, girl)
cos I love you (love you)
Used to have such fun
Used to have good times
But now those days are gone
Used to have it all
Used to get on fine
But things just went wrong
Used to be in love
Thought we had it made
But everything has changed
We just grew apart
No one is to blame
** woh, time has made us strangers
Maybe we cant go on
But if love can take the changes
* dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont throw it all away
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Dont make me cry, girl
Youre my girl
Dont say goodbye to me
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
We could go along
Saying things were fine
But were just fooling ourselves
Maybe we should
Talk it out right now
And put things on the line
Everyone in love
Goes through times like these
Its just part of the game
I remember
I used to call your name
Woh, things dont have to be this way
Love is the answer now
Maybe we could start again today
(* repeat)
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
(** repeat)
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Dont throw it all away
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Dont make me cry, girl
cos youre my girl
I couldnt live without you, no
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Dont say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
I want to spend my life with you
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Dont make me cry, girl
Youre my girl
Dont say goodbye to me
cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
(repeat chorus to fade)

Goodbye
I can’t say goodbye to you,
I can’t bare myself to you,
The hardest thing in life is to say goodbye to someone you love,
Writing things about you and I hurts me,
We were once friends, then a couple,
We broke up and then stop talking forever,
It has been months since we last talked,
I guess this is a goodbye to you and me,
I once loved you a lot,
I know in my heart that you loved me,
But saying goodbye to you it hurts me,
I cried for you,
I prayed for you to talk to me,
I just hope that we are still friends at least,
I don’t want to say goodbye to you forever,
Please let me know we are still friends.

1000 Times Goodbye
Dave mustaine
The tides of change pulled us apart
I feel a familiar pain
It seems like years since weve loved
Or even liked and thats a lonely way to be
Drifting alone in a sea of agony
Your face I cant recognize
Dont make this hard on us
I will miss you if you just go away
I did no right you did no wrong
Nothing left but wasted days
I regret you leaving
But I will never take you back
Solo - pitrelli
You know what? its over
I just dont feel the same way as I used to
Weve been together forever, but its over
Goodbye 1000 times goodbye
The thought never crossed my mind
That this would be my last goodbye
Let me put pennies on your eyes
And kiss your lips one last goodbye
My love 1000 times goodbye
It seems nothing good is free
A good thing cost much more than the price
You were good but not that good
Dont kid yourself now its time to beak up
Drifting alone in a sea of agony
Your face I cant recognize
Dont make this hard on us
I will miss you if you just go away
I did no right you did no wrong
Nothing left but wasted days
I regret you leaving
But Ill never take you back
Solo - pitrelli
Dont call me anymore. its just not
I dont feel the same way about you
Its not as good as it used to be
Goodbye 1000 times goodbye
The thought never crossed my mind
That this would be my last goodbye
Let me put pennies on your eyes
And kiss your lips one last goodbye
My love 1000 times goodbye
Repeat chorus
Solo - mustaine
Ill always love you but just not like that
Like what?
I want to be honest with you I met someone else
You did what?
And I really, I really love him like I used to love you
Remember the time that I told you that
I was going out of town for business?
Well I went to see him
You know what? you suck!
Solo - mustaine
Goodbye 1000 times
Youll always have a special place
In my heart you know that
Its just I cant be with you anymore its over
Goodbye 1000 times
Things may not work out with him
Goodbye 1000 times
And if they dont
Goodbye 1000 times
Then Ill certainly call you
Goodbye 1000 times
You mean a lot to me
I still really want to be friends with you
I love you like youre my brother

Tell Me Whats So Good About Goodbye
(allen henson, keith palmer)
I thought love was meant to last forever
Isnt that how loves supposed to be
Now it seems the good times are all over
Its so funny I guess the jokes on me
Every day I sit alone and wonder
Why I fell in love so easily
And then woke up to find that all he left behind
Are tattered dreams and broken pieces in my memory
So tell me whats so good about goodbye
Whats so good about watching good love die
Hes the kind you cant forget
So I wont even try
Tell me whats so good
I gave him all I could
Tell me whats so good about goodbye
I dont think Ill ever love another
I didnt know that goodbye could hurt so bad
I know Ill always find hes somewhere in my mind
Still believe the worst of hims the best Ill ever have

Looking For Something
Is there a good way to say goodbye
When youre leaving all you had cause your love has run dry
Is there a good way to be a bad girl
When youre taking all thats given from the world
Is there a good way to move ahead
Without selling out your soul for some water or some bread
Is there a good way to learn your lesson and stay alive
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe in some other city Ill see the light
Is there a good way to say goodbye
To this fantasy world to this lie
Is there a good way to get out before youre jaded
I need to find a good way to say goodbye
Is there a good way to say goodbye
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe in some other city Ill be alright
Is there a good way to leave him alone
When you find his love just hits too close to home
Is there a good way to deny everything you thought you needed
I need to find a good way to say goodbye
Is there a good way to say goodbye
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe Ill find somebody wholl make things alright
Ive been looking for something all of my live
Maybe in some other city Ill be alright
Ive been looking for you

So Now Goodbye
Written: kylie minogue and steve anderson
Remember when I saw you for the first time
I never thought youd be mine
Then we went ahead and fell in love
Heaven was a common ground
We were never coming down
The two of us we had more than enough
You and I are not the same
To you love is just a game
Things will never be the same again
Chorus 1:
So now goodbye
This time I will be gone goodbye
Stayed for way too long
Started out with trust
But it isnt just about the good times baby
Remember all the promises we swore to
Cant say I didnt warn you
How I did adore you way back then (I did adore you adore you)
Ohhhhh
But you broke a solemn vow
Ha! youre paying for it now
Wouldnt you expect more from a friend
You and I are not the same
To you love is just a game
Things will never be the same again
Chorus 1
Chorus 2:
So now goodbye
This time I will be gone goodbye
I stayed for way too long
I dont need you now
And I am oh so tired of excuses baby
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
This time will be gone goodbye
Stayed for way to long this time
It all started out with trust
But it isnt about the good times baby

Goodbye
Goodbye my friend
I have to say goodbye my friend
Cause you never respond to anything i send
Oh some times you might
You say no goodbye i need you in my life
Well i dont believe this to be
When was the last time you wrote
Or even called me
Im sick of checking an empty inbox
I even know before i see
There will be nothing from you for me
There is one thing thats true
You have moved on but i cant seem to
How can you just be with someone new
I must not of ment that much to you
So goodbye my lover goodbye my friend
Well i guess this is the end
Do worry about me i will be ok
What am i saying you dont care anyway
You gave up caring when you boarded the plane
You gave up everything even tried to changed your name
Let me say i never once gave up on you
Even when you said i dont want you
I have met someone new
What if i do i say
You reply i dont care what you do just go away
So goodbye my lover goodbye my friend
This will be the last letter i send
So goodbye goodbye to you
Even though you have forgotten me i will never forget you
The Sweet Hello Sad Goodbye
Red like fire was the day I met you.
I tell you now, there are no regrets.
In this room there are many memories.
Some are good, some I try to forget.
I thought we were the chosen ones,
Who were supposed to fly.
Were very much the same, you and i.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
When love lies in our hands, we seem to run and hide.
And I cant help but wonder why.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
My heart was like a runaway train, babe.
I dont believe Ive ever felt more alive.
In this room I hear voices linger.
We never talked about the price.
You know youre not the only one,
Who knows how to cry.
Were very much the same, you and i.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide.
And I cant help but wonder why.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
Were very much the same, you and i.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide.
And I cant help but wonder why.
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye.
Goodbye.

Never Can Say Goodbye
I never can say goodbye
No, no, no i, I never can say goodbye
Every time I think Ive had enough
And start heading for the door
Theres a very strange vibration
Kissing me right to the core or pericing me right to the core
It says turn around you fool,
You know you love him more
And more
Tell me why is it so?
Dont wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye boy
Ooh ooh baby I never can say goodbye

Ooh hey I never can say goodbye, boy
Ooh ooh baby

Oh no, no, no i, I never can say goodbye

I keep thinking that our problems soon are all gonna work
Out
But theres that same unhappy feeling,
Theres that anguish, theres that doubt
Its that same old dizzy hangup
I cant do with you or without or youve had with you all your life
Tell me why is it so? I dont wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye boy, ooh baby

Hey I never can say goodbye boy,ooh baby

Goodbye
I'm waiting until day you leave
It makes my life easier
Today I realized that I'm
Happy I didn't go out with you and
I can move on
Goodbye
I'm not leaving you anything so
Don't hope for it
Just leave this town forever
I don't want to see you ever again
You change me
You never care about me
You just want to hurt me
I don't regret it anymore
This time I'm just going out there to
Discovered other things I been missing
I'm not going back to you anymore
Goodbye
Your jealous it's not stopping me from dating other guys
I'm strong and confident again
I change what I don't like about myself and
This will make me feel different and new me
I'm not going tears or feel hurt anymore
Just go and please don't come back
I'm sick of your drama and attitude
I'm done with what keep going on over and over
I hate your games you playing
You change so much that I stop loving you
You keep rude my life
You got nothing else better to do
I just want you gone forever
I should know better
Goodbye
Just leave town and
I can't wait until that day come
You holding me back and
I'm not going let you do that to me
I give up so much for you
I'm wasting my life on you and
Worry what you going do next
Now I know better
I can't believe any of this
I can forget you, be happy and smile again
You coming in my life was bad luck
Goodbye

Thank You
I thought that I could always count on you
I thought that nothing could come between us two
We said as long as we would stick together
We'd be alright, we'd be okay
But I was stupid and you broke me down
I'll never be the same again
So thank you for showing me
That best friends cannot be trusted
And thank you for lying to me
Your friendship, the good times we had
You can have 'em back
Yeah
I wonder why it always has to hurt
For every lesson that you have to learn
I won't forget what you did to me
How you showed me things I wish I'd never seen
But I was stupid and you broke me down
I'll never be the same again
So thank you for showing me
That best friends cannot be trusted
And thank you for lying to me
Your friendship, the good times we had
You can have 'em back
When the tables turn again
You'll remember me my friend
You'll be wishing I was there for you
I'll be the one you miss the most
But you'll only find my ghost
As time goes by, you'll wonder why you're all alone
So thank you for showing me
That best friends cannot be trusted
And thank you for lying to me
Your friendship, the good times we had
You can have 'em back
So thank you, for lying to me
So thank you, for all the times you let me down
So thank you, for lying to me
So thank you, you friendship... you can have it back

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for the times you cried, and the lonlieness you felt inside,
I'm sorry for the way things were, and the selfishness that you endured,
I'm sorry for the nights we lost, and the deep pain it must have cost,
I'm sorry for the love you missed, losing you helped me realize this,
I'm sorry I wasn't the man you deserved, this has been the hardest lesson learned,
I'm sorry I wasn't there to show the deepest love you'll ever know,
I'm sorry for the empty days, and the stresses that you still yet pay,
I'm sorry for the way I left I've never felt so much regret,
I'm sorry for the heart I broke shattered with the words i spoke,
I'm sorry for the empty space, that laid beside you in my place,
I'm sorry for the empty arms, you fell into when times were hard,
I'm sorry for the days that passed, Our love that came to pass,
I'm sorry it took so long to vow this which i'm doing now, to love you forever if you hear me now
