I could tell that it was over When her lips met mine It was an emptiness in her voice Hesitation when she smiled She didn't have to say a word It was just so plain to see She had found what she'd been looking for And I knew it wasn't me
I saw goodbye in her eyes I don't think I can change it There's no way to disguise We will never make it
Sometimes I feel like a clown Who can't wash off his make-up The life she wanted ‒ it was gone Prince Charming ‒ I wasn't But I would trade a thousand Babylons To be in her arms tomorrow But like the tide her love has come and gone And it's time for me to go
I saw goodbye in her eyes I don't think I can change it There's no way to disguise We will never make it
Now she sees right through me
Should I hold on to what we've got Is it just a waste of time? One thing that I know for sure I saw goodbye in her eyes
I saw goodbye in her eyes
I know you got somebody new now All my candles have burned out He's gonna love the way you shine So did I So don't smile at me if it ain't what you mean (Goodbye)
With that goodbye in your eyes I know that I can't change it (now you see right through me) There's no way to disguise We will never make it
I saw goodbye in your eyes I know that I can't change it (now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes!) Should I hold on We will never make it (now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes!)
Should I hold on Is it just a waste of time? One thing that I know for sure I saw goodbye in your eyes I saw goodbye in your eyes I know that it's over
