Baby Goodbye
E.M.D Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You might think that I am radical
But I can't go around pretending life is fine
No no
Don't even miss when love was magical, no
So please don't bother buy me flowers when you're gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone

Baby goodbye, baby farewell

I don't wanna lie
'Cause we can't stay together
My friend
This is the end, the picture is drawn
You're not even on
Because you're gone
Gone, gone, gone, hey!

I've never been the calm an' quiet one
When people say that I am off the leash
I've not even begun, 'gun, 'gun

Baby goodbye, baby farewell
I don't wanna lie
Coz we can't stay together
My friend
This is the end, the picture is drawn
You're not even on
Because you're gone
Gone, gone

I don't wanna see
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna hear
If you are alone
I'm feeling so free
Now that you're gone
Gone, gone

Baby goodbye, baby farewell
I don't wanna lie
'Cause we can't stay together
My friend
This is the end, that picture is drawn
You're not even on
Because you're gone
Gone, gone

Baby goodbye, baby farewell
I don't wanna lie
'Cause we can't stay together
My friend
This is the end, the picture is drawn
You're not even on
Baby goodbye, baby farewell
I don't wanna lie
'Cause we can't stay together
My friend
This is the end, the picture is drawn
You're not even on

Because you're gone, gone, gone
Baby goodbye!

Line by Line Meaning

You might think that I am radical
You may see me as extreme

But I can't go around pretending life is fine
I can't pretend everything is okay

Don't even miss when love was magical, no
I don't miss the happiness we shared

So please don't bother buy me flowers when you're gone
Don't waste your time buying me things after leaving

Baby goodbye, baby farewell
Goodbye, farewell

I don't wanna lie
I don't want to deceive you

'Cause we can't stay together
Because we cannot remain together

My friend
Friend

This is the end, the picture is drawn
This is the end, our story is finished

You're not even on
You're not even present

I've never been the calm an' quiet one
I've never been a peaceful and silent person

When people say that I am off the leash
When people say I'm uncontrollable

I've not even begun, 'gun, 'gun
I haven't even started yet

I don't wanna see
I don't want to look

I don't wanna know
I don't want to find out

I don't wanna hear
I don't want to listen

If you are alone
If you're by yourself

I'm feeling so free
I feel so liberated

Now that you're gone
Now that you've left

Because you're gone, gone, gone
Because you're no longer here

Baby goodbye!
Goodbye!
