Lyrics

HIM:
I can only see the things that you show me
However little that might be
And that's why when you're like "hey, no one really knows me"
It's hard to feel much sympathy
I was taken aback that time you called me
And said this wasn't the end
But your voice had lost that edge that once enthralled me
So I said "well then let's just pretend"
HER:
I didn't expect you to say "so long"
But do I have the right to feel that I've been wronged?
HIM:
Baby, you're the only one who could finish my songs
And make them sound so sweet
HER:
Don't you think it's a bit unfair
To all of a sudden just not be there?
HIM:
Please don't take it to mean that I no longer care
I just can't bear to admit defeat
HER:
You know, just because I don't want to be with you
24 hours a day
It doesn't necessarily mean I'm not going to miss you
If you decide to go away
But I guess I can see why you say you just have to do something
After waiting for so long
Oh, if only there were a way I could go back and unsing
All those words I didn't know were wrong!
I never thought you would say goodbye
I never really thought of you as that kind of guy
HIM:
But now what can I do but sigh
And bid you a fond adieu
HER:
You're right, what's the point of making a scene
When we can sever our ties and just walk away clean?
HIM:
I know, I mean we're only 19
It's not too late for us to start anew
I never intended to cause you pain
HER:
It's just that sometimes you think without using your brain
HIM:
This little ditty may not have a true refrain
But there's something I'd like to repeat:
I never wanted to say "so long"
And maybe you're right to think that you've been wronged
But you're the only one who could finish my songs
And make them sound so sweet
HER:
And make them feel complete
BOTH:
And make them more upbeat
