Song lyrics

Goodbye
Should be sayin' that to you by now, shouldn't I?
Layin' down a law that I live by
Though maybe next time

I've got a thick tongue,
Brimming with the words that go unsung
I simmer then I burn for a someone
The wrong one

And I tell myself to let the story end,
That my heart will rest in someone else's hand
But my 'why not me?' philosophy began
And I say...

[Chorus:]
Ooh, how am I gonna get over you?
I'll be all right, just not tonight
But someday, hey, oh I wish you'd want me to stay
I'll be all right, just not tonight
But someday

Maybe, it's a vicious little word that can slay me
Keep me where I'm hurting you
Make me hang from your hands
Well, no more
I won't beg to buy a shot at your back door
If I'm aching at the thought of you, what for?
It's not me anymore

And I'm not the girl that I intend to be
I dare you darling, just you wait and see
But this time not for you, but just for me
And I say...

[Chorus]

(Say) Say, it's coming soon
(Someday) Someday without you
All I can do is get me past the ghost of you
Wave goodbye to me
I won't say I'm sorry
I'll be all right
Once I find the other side of someday

[Chorus]
