Longest Goodbye
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Neither here nor there
Wasn't truth or dare
He didn't look too hard
Because it's rude to stare
Neither here nor there
Wasn't truth or dare
He didn't look too hard
Because it's rude to stare
This is the longest goodbye of his life
It's not what he wants to be
Tryna be the good guy all his life
Walking on the thinnest ice
Hiding in the dimmest lights
Waiting in the coldest nights
For something that was never gonna be
For something that was never gonna be
He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
Broken down again and now the car won't start
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
Not today, not again
Not today, I heard him say
She's the one that got away
She's the one that got away
Not today, not again
Not today, I heard him say
She's the one that got away
She's the one that got away
He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
Broken down again and now the car won't start
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
Neither here nor there
Wasn't truth or dare
He didn't look too hard
Because it's rude to stare
Neither here nor there
Wasn't truth or dare
He didn't look too hard
Because it's rude to stare
He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
Broken down again and now the car won't start
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
The wrong side of his heart
