The Way I Say Goodbye (Stripped)

I won't make this about me

I want you to be happy

I won't beg you to stay, get in your way

And I'll probably wait to cry when you leave

I won't say that I hate you

In fact, that couldn't be more untrue

Won't pull a figurative knife, put up a fight

'Cause right now, I can tell that you don't want me to

And I've tried a million times to show you

That all I ever wanted is to know you

To really know you

If you couldn't feel my love

In the way I said, "Good morning"

If you couldn't feel my love

In the way I called you mine

Then I hope you feel my love

In the way I say goodbye

I'll try my best to leave you alone

But you were my future tеn minutes ago

So I can't say that I'm not shattered

But doеs it really matter?

It's messed up that caring means letting you go

And I've tried a million times to show you

That all I've ever wanted is to know you

But do I know you?

If you couldn't feel my love

In the way I said, "Forever"

If you couldn't feel my love

When I gave you my whole life

Then I hope you feel my love

In the way I say goodbye

Goodbye

I loved you, really loved you

Whatever you're looking for, I hope you find

Have a safe drive home

And a beautiful life
