Say Goodbye

Words and music by Joe Dickinson

 

I'm staring up at the hills

Thinking about a million things

Today has been just like yesterday

We'll see what tomorrow brings

I think sometimes I say too much

My mind is up in the sky

It's so hard to move on

It's so hard to say goodbye

 

Time can play tricks on you

Leave you in a heavy jam

I thought that you were gonna be here for a while

I guess you had other plans

I won't forget the things you said

Or how you made me cry

It's so hard to start over

It's so hard to say goodbye

 

My youth is sliding away

I feel like I'm ninety-nine

A stranger looked so good today

Mmm I wish she was mine

I take myself down so easily

I wish I knew why

It's so hard to let it go

It's so hard to say goodbye

 

I want everything to be perfect

I want it all to be done my way

If you don't like it you can hit the road

I'm not interested in what you have to say

This book's supposed to be timeless

But I find it kind of dry

It's so hard to run away

It's so hard to say goodbye

 

I'm writing you a letter

I'm gonna put it all on the page

I know you probably won't read it

But I'm sending it anyway

You never let me love you

You never even let me try

It's so hard to see you go

It's so hard to say goodbye
