Sweetest Goodbye Lyrics

Uh
Uh, huh
Yeah, yeah
Uh

Where you are seems to be
As far as an eternity
Outstretched arms open hearts
And if it never ends then when do we start?

I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
I know you understand, oh whoah
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back
Bring me closer to heart attack
Say goodbye and just fly away
When you comeback
I have something to say, yeah

How does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone
When you get home, home
There must be some place here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I
Dream away everyday
Try so hard to disregard
The rhythm of the rain that drops
And coincides with the beating of my heart

I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
And I know you'll understand, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever, ever, ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back
Bring me closer to heart attack
Say goodbye and just fly away
When you comeback
I have something to say, yeah

How does it feel to know you never have to be alone
When you get home, home
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I feel

Feel
Feel
Feel

(Yeah!)
(Come on)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Pushing forward and arching back (yeah, oh)
Bring me closer to heart attack

How does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone
When you get home, home
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I feel (show you how I feel, show you how I feel)
Show you how, show you, show
Show you how I feel
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I feel (show you, show you, show you, show you, show)
