Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My love I am running late
My love all has not been a waste
In a life that you have brought upon me
So farewell love, this is goodbye, let's not take our time
Farewell love, this isn't getting any easier
And you let go to what the end will show
My love I cannot stay
My love all has not been a waste
My love I am running late
From the life that you have brought upon me
So farewell love, this is goodbye, let's not take our time
Farewell love, this isn't getting any easier
And you let go to what the end will show
Ba, ba, da, ba, da, da, da
So farewell love, this is goodbye, let's not take our time
Farewell love, this isn't getting any easier
And you let go to what the end will show
Ba, ba, da, ba, da, da, da
I'm gonna save this for you
I'm gonna save this for you
I'm gonna save this for you
I'm gonna save this for you
So farewell love, this is goodbye, let's not take our time
Farewell love, this isn't getting any easier
And you let go to what the end will show
Ba, ba, da, ba, da, da, da
