Saying Goodbye Lyrics

I've got this funny feeling
that I just don't, don't belong here
and your eyes make it clear
You're just like a chameleon
you change your skin
for anyone that has the time
to give you there's
but I don't really care

This is me saying goodbye,
but not just for tonight
this is the final exit
I should have made so long ago
Why did I wait?

I've got this funny feeling
that I just don't, don't belong here
yeah, your eyes make it so clear
you only have the time
when you're bored
I'm not being selfish
I'm just being ignored
Your making a scene, yeah
but the scene's not making me

This is me saying goodbye,
but not just for tonight
this is the final exit
I should have made so long ago
Why did I wait?
This is me saying goodbye,
but not just for tonight
this is the final exit
I should have made so long ago
Why did I wait?

Why do we wait
when it makes no difference
all the same mistakes
over and over again?

This is me saying goodbye,
but not just for tonight
this is the final exit
I should have made so long ago
Why did I wait?

This is me saying goodbye,
but not just for tonight
this is the final exit
I should have made so long ago
Why did I wait?

This is me saying goodbye
but not just for tonight
and if you really want to make this right
you'll do something before the clock strikes

Ahh, love the intro to the song.

I love this song. It's pretty much ending a relationship, after she's been ill-treated by her partner. I love these lines

"you only have the time when you're bored I'm not being selfish I'm just being ignored Your making a scene, yeah but the scene's not making me" Saying that he really doesn't put effort into the relationship, he only turns to her when he seems like he has nothing better to do. She's upset because she's being ignored by him.

The last two lines of the song reminds me of cinderella: "and if you really want to make this right you'll do something before the clock strikes"
