These two so young
Found themselves a love strong
Never thinking too far ahead
But things change
People do
It's hard to know when
Something's through
Sometimes a signal comes and
It's over

But it doesn't have to be that way
Held on high is what we said
About our love
It doesn't have to be so hard
Even if we know this is our
Last goodbye
Our last goodbye
For the better

I hold memories dear
Important to me
All those good years
Hell they're what make up you
And me
But I have to say something here
Our differences were so clear
But it doesn't mean it was nothing
You meant something

It doesn't have to be that may
Held on high is what we said
About our love
It doesn't have to be so hard
Even if we know this is our
Last goodbye
Our last goodbye
For the better

Now you've found someone new
And it's o.k. 'cause she loves you
I just hope we'll be friends later on

'Cause it doesn't have to be
This way
Held on high is what we said
About our love
It doesn't have to be so hard
Even if we know this is
Our last goodbye
Our last goodbye

Now I'm sorry for all those things
I've done
I never meant to do you wrong
If you'd only look back on me
For awhile
I'd give anything to see you smile
That's what the love was for
