Goodbye
Die Happy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love a fairytale in my old book of fantasy
Trust but better control before you want to believe
Warmth you're totally hot or out there in the cold
Wrong is what I was thinking
Say, that I am your girl and that you love me only
Time, is rushing away and you still not here with me
Cool, I should be when you say that you don't like my hair
Why, am I even with you, why d' I stay?

Our love is history
Cause you don't care for me
I'm leaving, this is goodbye, goodbye yeah
You're never by my side
I want to live my life
This is the end, can't you see it

Say, that all is ok and that you are still my man
Time, is slipping away and you are not here again
Cold, is your face when you're talking about our life
Why?
Are you my lover
Or is it more?
I should have known
That it was wrong
To think that love is everlasting
I should have never been together with you!
You were mine and I thought
I could be anytime alone
You were mine and I thought
This is love
But it's now that the story is dead
I will never be sad
You were playing with me
Love is all that I wanted and it's all that I feel, I am losing you
Padapapa - I'm free, yeah

All the time
Why didn't you ever say




You prefer the other way
You're not like the other guys around

Overall Meaning

The song "Goodbye" by Die Happy is a powerful expression of the pain and frustration that comes with a failing relationship. The lyrics describe how the singer has been holding onto a fairytale love story in her mind, but reality has shown her that love is not always perfect. She believed in trust, but has now realized that control is necessary before one can fully believe in someone else. The singer is hurt by the fluctuating warmth from her partner, who can be either completely hot or completely cold. She questions the validity of their relationship, wondering why she is even with him at all.


The chorus reveals that their love has become history, and the singer is saying goodbye to her partner. She feels like he doesn't care for her and never makes time for her. She wants to live her life without him and move on. The second verse continues to expose the singer's feelings of neglect, as she pleads with her partner to reassure her that everything is okay. She is frustrated by his lack of affection and emotion, as he speaks about their life together with a cold face. In the end, she realizes that she should have never been with him, and that the idea of everlasting love was a mistake. She will no longer be held down by his nonchalance and is now free.

gestern nach langer (corona)zeit mal wieder live sehen dürfen... im Biergarten :-) einer der besten live-acts überhaupt! und selbst da haben sie alles abgerufen. Marta ist so stimmgewaltig wie ich es fast nie erlebt habe, und so sympathisch dazu und ohne Allüren. Eine RIESEN Band, und damit meine ich aber alle!
