Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been bound to leave you
We've known that for a while
I'm sure it's something I can't do
If I can't leave you with a smile
I don't know how far I'll have to go
Till I'm sure those eyes won't cry
And in my mind, I've left enough to know
That I can't leave you with a bad goodbye
[Chorus]
Goodbye, easier said than done
Goodbye, there's no good when you're the one
Whose goodbye you swore would never come
And in my goodbye, you're finding none
[Verse 2]
I'm still bound to leave you
I surely don't know how
My heart won't let me put you through
What my mind said should happen now
I don't know where we'll go from here
There may be no way to fly
And the cloud I'm in just makes it all too clear
That I can't leave you with a bad goodbye
[Chorus]
Goodbye, easier said than done
Goodbye, there's no good when you're the one
Whose goodbye you swore would never come
And in my goodbye, you're finding none
[Outro]
How can we be so far between
Where we are and one more try?
And any way I look, I've only seen
That I can't leave you with a bad goodbye
