Say Goodbye
Kari Kimmel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Second guessed
The life we tried
Maybe we'd have won
In a different time
Now all we have
And all it's cost
We gave our best
We say goodbye for the last time
Take our bows again
Time is closing in and it's where this journey ends
The path that we chose is fading
Our stories rewritten
I must let you go to find your dreams again
Ooh ooh
Our heads held high
Though the tide
Rolling in
We tried to fight
We say goodbye for the last time
Take our bows again
Time is closing in and it's where this journey ends
The path that we chose was fading
Our stories rewritten
I must let you go to find your dreams again
The lyrics to Kari Kimmel's song Say Goodbye describe a couple who have decided to end their relationship, acknowledging that they have given it their best but still failed. They are second-guessing their choices and wondering if things could have been different if they had tried again in a different time. Despite their sadness and regret, they must now bid each other farewell and move on with their lives. The song talks about the changing paths of their lives as they go their separate ways to follow their dreams.
The lyrics are written with a great deal of poignancy and emotion, capturing the feeling of loss and letting go. It is a song that speaks to anyone who has had to say goodbye to someone they loved, and the pain of knowing that things will never be the same again. The repeated chorus of "We say goodbye for the last time/Take our bows again/Time is closing in and it's where this journey ends" reinforces the sense of finality and closure that both parties feel.
The song is a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to the power of love and the sacrifices that people make in the name of it. It is a reminder that even when love fails, it is still worth taking a chance on it.
