You and I were friends from outer space
Afraid to let go
The only two who understood this place
And as far as we know
We were way before our time
As bold as we were blind
Just another perfect mistake
Another bridge to take
On the way of letting go,

This ain't goodbye
It is just the way love goes
But when the words aren't warm enough,
To keep away the cold, oh no
This ain't good bye
It's not where our story ends
But I know you can't be mine,
Not the way you always been
As long as we've got time
Then this ain't goodbye
Oh no, this ain't goodbye

We were stars up in the sunlit sky
No one else could see
Neither of else ever thought to ever ask why
It wasn't meant to be
Maybe we were way too high
To ever understand
Baby we were victims of all, all the foolish plans
We began to divide

But this ain't goodbye
This is just the way love goes
But where's the woman now to keep way the cold, oh no
This ain't goodbye
It's not where our story ends
But I know you cant be mine
Just like the way you've always been
As long as we got time,
This ain't good bye,
Oh no, this ain't good bye,
Oh oh, oh no this ain't goodbye
No na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na this ain't goodbye

You and I were friends from outer space
Afraid to let go
The only two who understood this place
And as far as we know
This ain't goodbye
Oh no this ain't goodbye
This ain't goodbye
Oh no this ain't goodbye
This ain't goodbye
It's just the way love goes
But when the words aren't warm enought, to keep away the cold, oh no,
This ain't goodbye
This isn't where the story ends
But I know you can't be mine
Like the way you've always been
Oh no, don't say it
No na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na don't say good bye

    To me, it's not about a love that never happened, but one that fell apart. Simple as that.
