Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Of all the things I believed in
I just wanna get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days pass me by
[Verse 2]
I've been searchin' deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearin' are starting to get old
It feels like I'm startin' all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said
[Chorus]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
[Verse 3]
I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closin' my eyes, and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right
[Chorus]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
[Bridge]
And it hurts to want everything
And nothing at the same time
I want what's yours, and I
Want what's mine
I want you, but I'm not givin' in this time
[Chorus]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
[Chorus]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
One thing that I tried to hold onto
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
[Outro]
One thing that I tried to hold onto
And when the stars fall I will lie awake
You're my shooting star
