Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could tell that it was over
When her lips met mine
It was an emptiness in her voice
Hesitation when she smiled
[Verse 2]
She didn't have to say a word
It was just so plain to see
She had found what she'd been looking for
And I knew it wasn't me
[Chorus]
I saw goodbye in her eyes
I don't think I can change it
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I feel like a clown
Who can't wash off his make-up
The life she wanted, it was gone
Prince Charming, I wasn't
[Verse 4]
But I would trade a thousand Babylons
To be in her arms tomorrow
Oh, but like the tide, her love has come and gone
And it's time for me to go
[Chorus]
I saw goodbye in her eyes
I don't think I can change it
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it (Now she sees right through me)
[Bridge]
Should I hold on to what we've got?
Is it just a waste of time?
One thing that I know for sure
I saw goodbye in her eyes
I saw goodbye in her eyes
[Bridge]
I know you got somebody new now
All my candles have burned out
He's gonna love the way you shine, so did I
So don't smile at me, if it ain't what you mean
[Chorus]
(Goodbye) With that goodbye in your eyes
I know that I can't change it (Now you see right through me)
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it
[Chorus]
I saw goodbye in your eyes
I know that I can't change it (Now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes)
Should I hold on?
We will never make it (Now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes)
[Outro]
Should I hold on?
Is it just a waste of time?
One thing that I know for sure
I saw goodbye in your eyes
I saw goodbye in your eyes
I know that it's over
