Someone Said Goodbye Lyrics
Summer. When the day is over
there’s a heart a little colder;
someone said goodbye,
but you don’t know why.
Somewhere there is someone keeping
All the tears they have been weeping,
Someone said goodbye,
But you don’t know why.
Is there a reason
Why a broken heart begins to cry?
Is there a reason
You were lost although you don’t know why?
Give me a reason
Why you never want to say goodbye.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
Always looking for meaning,
All the time you keep believing,
But I don’t know why
You won’t say goodbye.
Even when the sun is shining
You don’t see the silver lining,
But you don’t know why
You won’t say goodbye.
Is there a reason
Why a broken dream can never fly?
Is there a reason
You believe and you close your eyes?
Give me a reason
Why you hide away so much inside.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
Is there a reason
Why a broken heart begins to cry?
Is there a reason
You were lost although you don’t know why?
Give me a reason
Why you never want to say goodbye.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.
there’s a heart a little colder;
someone said goodbye,
but you don’t know why.
Somewhere there is someone keeping
All the tears they have been weeping,
Someone said goodbye,
But you don’t know why.
Why a broken heart begins to cry?
Is there a reason
You were lost although you don’t know why?
Give me a reason
Why you never want to say goodbye.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
All the time you keep believing,
But I don’t know why
You won’t say goodbye.
You don’t see the silver lining,
But you don’t know why
You won’t say goodbye.
Why a broken dream can never fly?
Is there a reason
You believe and you close your eyes?
Give me a reason
Why you hide away so much inside.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
Why a broken heart begins to cry?
Is there a reason
You were lost although you don’t know why?
Give me a reason
Why you never want to say goodbye.
If there’s a reason,
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.
I don’t know why.

To me, this song is about someone who was let go in a relationship. They loved the other person so much that the relationship's end devastated them. How can they love ever again? ("Why a broken dream can never fly?") Why would such a great love end? ("But you don’t know why.") Why can't they be back together? ("All the time you keep believing,"). The person cannot let go of the thought of the relationship. It would hurt too much to do so. The speaker doesn't quite understand why this is so, hence the repetition of "I don't know why."
I agree.
I love this song :)
Sarroth stated it perfectly! Such a beautiful song. Explains exactly how I am feeling...
I think this song is about suicide and depression. "Someone said goodbye" seems to mean that they said goodbye to the world. "Always looking for a meaning"; looking for something good in your life. All the lyrics of the song seem to fit this theme of suicide, depression, and cure. "Give me a reason why you never want to say goodbye -- if there's a reason, I don't know why."
