Don't say a word
Let the silence bend and curve
Around us like a barrier
That holds the hurt at bay

Time stands still
And keeps us both against our will
With gritty teeth and mouths that fill
With words that we can't say

So hold me closely, tell me that we're gonna be fine
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye
God knows why or how, but we are running out of time
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye

Cry on me
Forevermore will always be
Silently remembering
You underneath my breath

So hold me closely, tell me that we're gonna be fine
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye
God knows why or how, but we are running out of time
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye

Or how much you meant to me
How much better my whole life will always be
I'm sorry, but I can't find the words
To tell you how I feel

So hold me closely, tell me that we're gonna be fine
Oh, I don't know how to say goodbye
God knows why or how, but we are running out of time

I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't know how to say goodbye
