No Last Goodbye

Verse 1

I wish we still had what we once had,

Back when love was all we knew.

Did it really end this quiet,

Without a word, without the truth?

Now I finally understand it,

Some things fade and never try.

There ain’t no door left open,

Just a road that passes by.

No final letter on the table,

No reason written in the sand,

Just two hearts letting go

Without a final stand.

There was no last goodbye, no closure in sight,

No words to save us in the dead of the night.

We didn’t break, we didn’t fight,

We just let it die.

I’ll be a stranger to you,

And you’ll be one to me,

There was no last goodbye…

Just silence setting us free.

I’ll forget the way you smelled like rain,

The way you said my name.

How it sounded soft and nervous

When we met back then.

You’ll feel unfamiliar slowly,

Like a town you passed one time,

A memory in the rearview mirror

On a long, empty line.

It’ll turn into a story

I don’t wanna tell again,

A history lesson written

In the worst kind of pain.

There was no last goodbye, no closure in sight,

No words to save us in the dead of the night.

We didn’t break, we didn’t fight,

We just let it die.

I’ll be a stranger to you,

And you’ll be one to me,

There was no last goodbye…

Just silence setting us free.

You’ll try to forget I ever existed,

I’ll try to do the same somehow.

We’ll move on in different directions,

Learn how to breathe without each other now.

There was no last goodbye, but time will explain,

How to make peace with the hurt and the pain.

I’ll become a memory

You don’t visit anymore,

And you’ll be someone

I don’t ache for.

We’ll both move on, yeah, you and I,

Until we finally find our peace

In a life without goodbye.
