Things are changing

It seems strange and

I need to figure this out

You've got your life

I got mine

But you're all I cared about

Yesterday we were laughing

Today I'm left here asking

Where has all the time gone now

I'm left alone somehow

Growing up and getting older

I don't want to believe it's over

[Chorus:]

Don't say goodbye

Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight

Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I

And although we knew

This time would come for me and you

Don't say anything tonight

If you're gonna say goodbye

Do you remember

In December

How we swore we'd never change

Even though you're leaving

That our feelings

Would always stay the same

I wish we could be laughing

Instead I'm standing here asking

Do we have to end this now

Can we make it last somehow

We both know what we've gotta say, not today

Cause I don't wanna leave this way

[Bridge:]

And if it's over

It hurts but I'm giving you my word

I hope that you're always

Happy like we were

Happy like we were

[Altro:]

Yesterday we were laughing (if you're gonna say goodbye)

Today I'm left here asking (if you're gonna say goodbye)

And although we knew this time would come for me and you

Don't say anything tonight

If you're gonna say goodbye
