Lyrics

Look

We gotta talk

Dang, I know, I know

But it's, it's just some things I gotta get off my chest, aight?

Yeah, whoa, whoa

Listen

Baby, come in, sit down, let's talk

I got a lot to say, so I guess I'll start by

Sayin' that I love you

But you know this thing ain't been no walk in the park for us

I swear it'll only take a minute

You'll understand when I'm finished, yeah

And I don't want to see you cry

But I don't want to be the one to tell you a lie, so

How do you let it go when you

You just don't know what's on

The other side of the door?

When you're walking out, talk about it

Now, everything I tried to remember to say

Just went out my head

So I'ma do the best I can to get you to understand

'Cause I know, yeah

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't, you're gonna start hating me

'Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl, it's not you, it's me, I

Kinda gotta figure out what I need, oh

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go our separate ways

And I know it's hard, but I gotta do it

And it's killing me 'cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye

Girl, I know your heart is breaking

And a thousand times, I

Found myself asking why, why?

Why am I taking so long to say this?

But trust me, girl, I never

Meant to crush your world and I never

Thought I would see the day we'd grow apart

And I wanna know

How do you let it go when you

You just don't know what's on

The other side of the door?

When you're walking out, talk about it

Girl, I hope you understand what I'm tryna say

We just can't go on

Pretending that we get along

Girl, how you not gon' see it? Oh, yeah

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't, you're gonna start hating me

'Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl, it's not you, it's me, I

Kinda gotta figure out what I need, oh

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go our separate ways

And I know it's hard, but I gotta do it

And it's killing me 'cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye

Listen to your heart

Girl, you know, we should be apart

Baby, I, I just can't do it

I, I just can't do it

Listen to your heart

Girl, you know, we should be apart

Baby, I, I just can't do it

And sometimes, it makes me wanna cry

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh (Do you hear me crying?)

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh (Oh, oh, oh)

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

There's never a right time to say goodbye (Oh, yeah)

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't, you're gonna start hating me (Baby)

'Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you (Oh, whoa)

Girl, it's not you, it's me, I (It's me, yeah)

Kinda gotta figure out what I need, oh (About you and me)

There's never a right time to say goodbye (Oh, no, it ain't)

But we know that we gotta go our separate ways (Go, ways)

And I know it's hard, but I gotta do it

And it's killing me 'cause there's never a right time (Right time)

Right time to say goodbye (Right time)

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't, you're gonna start hating me

'Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl, it's not you, it's me, I

Kinda gotta figure out what I need, oh

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go our separate ways

And I know it's hard, but I gotta do it

And it's killing me 'cause there's never a right time

Right time to say
