Lyrics
[Intro]
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
[Verse 1]
It only falls into place when you're falling to pieces
You find love that lasts a while till you lose the reasons
Sayin', "God, I'm alive"
But the whole place is quiet
You miss something that you can't place but you can't deny it
Don't know whether you want a place in the coast or the country
You can't stay here, it's hard to face and it feels too ugly
You light a fire inside yourself, let it burn
Stare up at a starless sky and you say
[Chorus]
"It's like I'm still here with you
It's like I'm still here with you
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye"
[Verse 2]
The past coming back with the light in the morning
Look down on myself like a patient in surgery
And I used to watch my mother move
Like God was in the room
It's a bottomless hole that I've found out here with a trace of no one
With a past box of photos, I rip myself open
I'm in bed and I'm wondering
If I'm callous but hoping
Can I fix what is broken?
[Chorus]
It's like I'm still here with you
It's like I'm still here with you
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
It's like I'm still here with you
It's like I'm still here with you
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
[Bridge]
Oh-oh
[Chorus]
It's like I'm still here with you
It's like I'm still here with you
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say
I don't, I don't, I don't want to say goodbye
[Outro]
It only falls into place when you're falling to pieces
You find love that lasts a while, then you lose the reasons
You say, "God, I'm alive
But the whole place is quiet"
You miss something that you can't place but you can't deny it
