Time to Say Goodbye
Andi Young Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time to say goodbye
It's time to say goodbye
we never fell in love
whenever there's a man there's a fire
we must try to avoid
so we tried
now it don't really matter cuz we tried
I never said I'll fall in love
but I knew I would love you
forever is too long to say
we're too young to stay
but we tried
and I'll never be ok

In that night
our first time
you lay in my arms till the morning light
the stars were shining bright
it didn't last
then I spent many nights many days
trying to forget how we were

It's time to say goodbye
one day you will fall in love
but that someone won't be me
would you still think of me
in many many years
some day when I'm old
I'll tell my children how I tried
I lost you but I tried

It's time to say goodbye
one day I will understand
sometimes I still miss you my love
we're too young to lose
and each day I live in deep regrets
and I realize that if I never fall in love
that's because I still love you
forget them there is no easy way
time only hurts won't heal
I turned around the day you said goodbye

It's time to say goodbye
and you will finally fall in love




we never fell in love
how do we say goodbye
