Goodbye
I'm thinking of you
In my sleep
They're not good thoughts
The worst kind of sad
I've noticed things
Cannot be repaired
When I wake up
I'll be in despair

Cause I know I've got to say
I know I've got to say
Goodbye baby goodbye
Goodbye baby goodbye
You're my sweetheart goodbye
You're my sweetest goodbye

I know I'm gonna look
So, so, so, so bad
But there's no easy way
For me to have to walk away
But I don't want to hear this no more
And I don't want to feel this no more
And I don't want to see this no more
And I don't want to experience this no more

Cause I know I've got to say
I know I've got say
Goodbye baby goodbye
Goodbye baby goodbye
You're my sweetheart goodbye
You're my sweetest goodbye
Goodbye (Repeat)
You're my sweetest (Repeat)

    This can always bring me to tears..His voice is amazing and the music is breathtaking. "I know i'm gonna look So so so so bad But there's no easier way For me to have to walk away" I totally can relate to this..

    This song has risen to the top of my list of saddest songs ever. If you have something to relate it to, it only makes it harder to listen to. If I need to just release any sadness...this song does it for me. It will literally yank the tears right out of you. Very memorable song...vocals are simply amazing. I usually start to tear up when he gets to "You're my, sweetheart, Goodbye, You're my sweetest, Goodbye"...it's just the complete lack of hope...the sense of loss...the vocals just make the song.
