Everyone laughs and everyone cries,
But then when it's time to say their goodbyes,

Nobody wants to nobody’s ready.

Nobody told them they’d have to already.

Come on now, time to say your goodbyes.

Everyone comes and everyone goes,

But nobody knows how much pain really shows

When somebody leaves them alone in the shadows

Cold and dark and dazed.

Come on now, time to leave, let's go.

Everyone waits, but patience is thin so nobody waits for long

Come on now, time to forget

All those times you can never get back.

All those people you can never see.

All those places you left the echo of your voice,

All empty without you.All those memories you can’t recreate.

All forgotten in time.

When you say goodbye

I think it's good but I feel too one sided and biased because people have told me leaving is good too...
