Say Goodbye
Mandisa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

To the voice
To the liar in the mirror
Saying you can't ever change
To the guilt that's sittin' on your shoulder
Always keeping you wrapped in chains

To the past that you can't undo
To the pain that your walking through
To the small and the big mistakes
This is what love wants to say

[Chorus]
Say goodbye say goodbye
To the one that used to be
Say goodbye say goodbye
Everyday is a brand new mercy
(Hello, hello)
This is where it starts now
(Hello, hello)
Everything can turn around
In a moment, here's your moment
You can say goodbye

There is grace that you can't imagine
There is love that you can't out run
There is peace you can hold onto
When your world is comin' undone

You don't have to give into the fear
Don't have to let your story stop here
When the hand tries to pull you back
You don't have to go back
You don't have to go back

[Chorus]

To everything that breaks you down
It doesn't have to define you now
Jesus can take it all away

[Chorus]

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Your not the one you used to be
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Everyday is a brand new mercy
(Hello, hello)
This is where it starts now
(Hello, hello)
Everything can turn around
In a moment, here's the moment




Where you say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye
