I never really knew the truth behind Goodbye.
Never have I thought of it before.
But then you said it in a blink of an eye.
Goodbye, goodbye!

I've learned of what it means to be alone.
Of that behind the heavy curtain.
When the show is over one is on one's own.
Destination unknown.

The jealousy fades and hurting words run free.
Goodbye chases "I love you" away.
Goodbye peels the fruit of the poisonous tree,
I couldn't foresee.

You'll never crawl over my shoulder for a kiss
Other people will consume us now.
Our passion chased into the dark oceanic abyss
Our plans amiss.

Goodbye means breathing you out, mending the scar,
And putting miles between us.
It means letting a stranger grab your heart and C.P.R
Au revoir, au revoir!
