Gone West - When To Say Goodbye Lyrics

With enough time, rain can shape stone
When you mean them, words can break bones
Loneliness is better alone
Choose a crowd in this cold, empty home

I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna stay
I don't wanna keep sayin' the things we don't wanna say
Truth or lie, real love knows when to say goodbye
I don't wanna give, I don't wanna take
I don't wanna keep holdin' the things we should throw away
Wastin' time, real love knows when to say goodbye

Too much light can make colors fade
Too much darkness feels like a cave
You can't grow fresh flowers in shade
We can't go on livin' this way

I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna stay
I don't wanna keep sayin' the things we don't wanna say
Truth or lie (truth or lie), real love knows when to say goodbye
I don't wanna give, I don't wanna take
I don't wanna keep holdin' the things we should throw away
Wastin' time (wastin' time), real love knows when to say goodbye

Goodbye sounds like sweet raindrops
On our tongues, but won't come off

I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna stay
I don't wanna keep sayin' the things we don't wanna say
Truth or lie, real love knows when to say goodbye
I don't wanna give, I don't wanna take
I don't wanna keep holdin' the things we should throw away
Wastin' time (wastin' time), real love knows when to say goodbye

When to say
And it knows when to say goodbye
(Real love knows when to say goodbye)

With enough time, rain can shape stone
When you mean them, words can break bones
