It's Not Goodbye, It's Just Goodnight Lyrics

This secret. There's no one else.
This secret.
I sit here alone
My thoughts are moving faster than I can breathe

I can't let you go
and slip out of the door you stand in
Believe in second chances
The taste of salt goes away
I'll make it up to you,
I'll make it up to me
I can't wait another day for you to listen
I can't take much more

All our failure to forget
Will only get us nowhere
It shouldn't be this way
Don't let it stay
Cause I will wait forever
Erase, erase what's left

What a vacant smile
What lies behind it makes me wonder
Who's playing who in this game
This shame it won't go away
I promise not to look back
If you swear you'll do the same
I can't wait another day for you to listen
I can't take much more

All our failure to forget
Will only get us nowhere
It shouldn't be this way
Don't let it stay
Cause I will wait forever
Erase, erase what's left

All our failure to forget
Will only get us nowhere
It shouldn't be this way
Don't let it stay
Cause I will wait forever
Erase, erase, erase, erase what's left

This secret. There's no one else.
This secret.
I sit here alone
My thoughts are moving faster than I can breathe

I can't let you go
and slip out of the door you stand in
Believe in second chances
The taste of salt goes away
I'll make it up to you,
I'll make it up to me
I can't wait another day for you to listen
I can't take much more

All our failure to forget
Will only get us nowhere
It shouldn't be this way
Don't let it stay
Cause I will wait forever
Erase, erase what's left

What a vacant smile
What lies behind it makes me wonder
Who's playing who in this game
This shame it won't go away
I promise not to look back
If you swear you'll do the same
I can't wait another day for you to listen

All our failure to forget
Will only get us nowhere
It shouldn't be this way
Don't let it stay
Cause I will wait forever
Erase, erase, erase, erase what's left

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
