[Verse 1]
I saw the silence in your eyes tonight
Like the sun just gave up the fight
You touched my hand, but your heart was gone
Been holdin’ on, but I knew all along
---
[Chorus]
Don’t say goodbye if you don’t mean it
Don’t walk away while I’m still breathin’
I’d rather live in the dark than see the light
Of you lovin’ someone else tonight
Oh, don’t say goodbye…
Don’t say goodbye
---
[Verse 2]
I begged the stars to lie to me
Say you still feel what we used to be
But your voice is colder than the breeze
Your love is fading like autumn leaves
---
[Chorus]
Don’t say goodbye if you don’t mean it
Don’t leave me here with nothin’ to believe in
I’d rather cry a thousand nights
Than see you move on and feel alright
Oh, don’t say goodbye…
Don’t say goodbye
---
[Bridge]
If this is where it ends, just close the door
Don’t give me hope, I can’t take more
I’d rather lose my sight than watch you go
I’d rather not know…
---
[Final Chorus]
Don’t say goodbye if your heart’s still near
Don’t let me drown in my own fear
I’d rather be blind than see you fade
Than watch the love we had slip away
No, don’t say goodbye…
Baby, don’t say goodbye
