All I Have Left To Say Is Goodbye


Baby, why won't you look at me?
Has it been so long now, something went so wrong somehow
That I'm not in your vision no more
You used to say I'm your dream
Was that just one of your lies for you to manage me by
I should've know I was getting played

You don't even remember my name
It was on the caller ID, still you talked to me
Like I was some foreign stranger
Will you ever get this ain't a game?
You drew me like a card from a deck, turned me into a wreck
Now really what do you expect me to do

All I have left is to say goodbye
But before I do let me tell you why
You can't be treatin' me like a toy
I don't wanna be played and thrown away
Don't you get it, boy?
When you say "I love you" it doesn't mean "just for now"
I hope you get worse next time around
I've left the key, I'm not gonna cry
All I have left is to say goodbye

I remember all those wonderful kisses
It started out so well before it fell, who could tell
It was gonna end this way
Now I see they were just broken promises
I should've never trusted you, didn't know I was likely to
Thought I had more common sense than that

What was worse is I let you in
If only I'd payed attention to those nights you'd mention
You were too busy the night before
How could I have let you win
When you convinced me to believe and all I'd receive
Is your lust for some other girl

All I have left is to say goodbye
But before I do let me tell you why
You can't be treatin' me like a toy
I don't wanna be played and thrown away
Don't you get it, boy?
When you say "I love you" it doesn't mean "just for now"
I hope you get worse next time around
I've left the key, I'm not gonna cry
All I have left is to say goodbye

I've packed my bags, I'm leavin' you behind
I really hope the next girl you find
Gives you what you asked for, a broken heart
After all you've done to me, torn me apart
I know I could've murdered you
I know I could've exposed you
But I want you to know I'm not like you
I'm not that cruel, but what I'll do
Is leave you behind without a dream come true
And even if you forget me, or think you didn't upset me
The next time around will remind you
That this is wrong, so now I'm sayin' so long
I wonder if I left anything behind with you

All I have left is to say goodbye
But before I do let me tell you why
You can't be treatin' me like a toy
I don't wanna be played and thrown away
Don't you get it, boy?
When you say "I love you" it doesn't mean "just for now"
I hope you get worse next time around
I've left the key, I'm not gonna cry
All I have left is to say goodbye
