Can't say I don't love her
Still I can't pretend
That my heart is torn just knowing that I'm losing my bestfriend
If it's easier said than done
Then someone tell me why
Though I try, I can't find the words to say goodbye
I could tell her that I'm sorry
And hope she'll understand
She will have to do with someone else
All that we have planned
I'd rather her hear the truth than hurt her with a lie
So I tried, but I can't find the words to say goodbye
Now I know I have to go
There's no other way
But goodbye is not what I can bring myself to say
If I told her see you later
Then I might be wrong
'Cause this voice inside is driving me to find where I belong
I know I must leave her now, but every time I try
Don't know why
I can't find the words to say goodbye
Don't know why
I can't find the words to say goodbye
