Goodbye Angel
Now that it's time
I can't bear to say
All of those words
I'd planned everyday
And when I sit alone
I pretend I don't care
When I lie down
I pretend they're not there
Chorus: So goodbye Angel
I'm going away and I'm not coming back
Goodbye Angel
I may leave your presence but never your heart
Goodbye Angel
Maybe he just doesn't care
For all the times he didn't speak
Maybe he is just a kind heart
Or maybe I just think this while I'm weak
If I tried to come back
And talk to you with pain
We wouldn't have these feelings
It wouldn't be the same
Chorus
We both know, we can't deny
Though deep inside we know it's the end
We just go on
We just pretend
Maybe I just read too much in
But the moment I saw you, you had me in
Now that I look into your eyes
All that we feel must be reduced to friends
Chorus
Sometimes we love in different ways
And this one confused me, I just couldn't find
What was in your eyes
What was behind
Is it better to have lost and loved
Than never to have at all?
I don't see how that's possible
But maybe I'm too small
Chorus
Now as I begin to leave your eyes
There's truth in what they say
No matter how hard you try
Love's a hard game to play
