She was standing at the barrier by security check That was as far as they'd let her Trails of mascara down her cheeks and her neck Worried her loved one might forget her
He is leaving today I watched him run, run, run to catch his plane Determination on his face Nothing could stop him, nothing could stop him Nothing could stop him, he had to get away
She'll be waiting till the end of the world Just because he didn't say the word, no, no, no, no, no She'll be left a strange and unsettled girl Just because he didn't say the word bye, bye, bye, goodbye
It reminded me of something I've been trying to forget A window I left wide open The day I didn't say the words that I should've said And left a hungry man hoping
I was leaving that day
I had to run, run, run to catch my train I heard him calling out my name But nothing could stop me, nothing could stop me Nothing could stop me, I had to get away
Now he'll be waiting till the end of time Just because I couldn't say the word, no, no, no, no, no It'll rattle at the back of his mind Just because I couldn't say the word bye, bye, bye, goodbye
If you're leaving say the word, say the word If you're leaving say the word, say the word If you're leaving say the word, say the word If you're leaving say the word, say the word
I'll be waiting till the end of time Just because you haven't said the word, no, no, no, no, no, no It'll rattle at the back of my mind Just because you haven't said the word bye, bye, bye, goodbye Bye, bye, bye, goodbye, bye, bye, bye, goodbye Bye, bye, bye, goodbye
